DescriptionCapturing the flavor of Renaissance-style binding at its zenith, this intricately embellished journal is so very pleasing to the eye and touch. During this remarkable period, manuscripts were renowned for their exquisitely crafted covers made of fine Moroccan leather, hand-tooled 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 mediae val manuscripts. |
