Reporting live from drizzly Berkeley, California. I flew in yesterday for Codex 2017 – 6th Biennial International Book Fair and Symposium which will kick off tomorrow and continue through this coming Wednesday, February 8th.
May I present to you the deluxe binding of Qin Guan’s ~ Moon as Bright as Water. It will premier tomorrow at the show and is now available for purchase on my website.
Calf vellum quarter binding with gray Cave Paper debossed with matt gray and gold foil. Flyleaves of handmade green St Armand with Brick Hahnemühle Bugra endpapers housed in a brown Kennett bookcloth covered drop spine box foiled in matt gray with a vellum spine title.
