The cover is original paste paper in purple, worked wet so that broad petal shapes lift out of the ground with soft gold blooming through where the paint thinned. Each sheet is pulled by hand, so this pattern belongs to this book alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe paste paper wraps the boards directly here, with no cloth at the spine, so the exposed coptic stitch sits right against the purple front board and the black back board. The thread is a bright gold, chosen to read against the purple rather than disappear into it. The stitch is what lets the book fall open flat and stay there, including on the first and last spreads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e144 lined pages on 70 lb acid free text weight, at 5.5 by 8.75 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaper:\u003c\/strong\u003e 70 lb text weight, acid free\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCover:\u003c\/strong\u003e acid free binder's board, original paste paper, neutral pH adhesive\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding:\u003c\/strong\u003e exposed coptic stitch, pure linen thread\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePage style:\u003c\/strong\u003e lined\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5\" x 8.75\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlease note: slight variations in dimensions, up to a quarter inch, are normal in a book made entirely by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Patti Paulus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54442338517276,"sku":"2604-075-258","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0438\/2901\/files\/041_purple-gold-pink-handmade-pastepaper-lined-handbound-layflat-coptic-book-front.jpg?v=1786915642","url":"https:\/\/www.glyphstationers.live\/products\/coptic-stitch-handmade-book-purple-gold-pink","provider":"Glyph Stationers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
