These one of a kind books made of archival insides and antique outsides by Margaux Kent of Philidelphia, PA. Inside you’ll find lineless strathmore drawing paper – thick, hand-torn, acid-free pages that work well with ink, pens both thick and superfine, pencil, glue and myriad other mediums. The pages are each torn and hand sewn with archival linen binding tape and thread.
The books’ covers are made using hand-picked scraps and worn leather from all over – from far-flung and close by travels and sometimes including abandoned houses! The books can be carried daily and beat up. They are very strong and created to outlive the person filling it.
