The Look Of Antique Leather
Capturing the flavour of Renaissance-style binding at its zenith, these handsomely embellished journals are a delight for the hand and the eye. During this remarkable period of classical revival, manuscripts were renowned for their exquisitely crafted covers made of fine Moroccan leather, handtooled in gold with delicate foliage patterns. Brought to Europe via the flourishing trade routes to the Far and Middle East, this style of ornamentation lent a new vibrancy and lightness of design that was not present in mediaeval manuscripts. The timeless beauty of these antique books is brought into the present with our finely wrought binding reproductions.
This classic Old Leather design, although often mistaken for real leather, is a printed cover with a leather-like pattern. The Black Moroccan style is a very dark brown.
