Description

Using authentic Japanese washi tape paper, metallic foiling and a touch of varnish for protection, our Azure/Poetry in Bloom washi tape set will bring a pop of colour to your bullet journal spread. This double-pack is inspired by two beautiful antique book bindings.

Equinoxe: Azure

Our cover reproduces a 1688 binding protecting Loffice de la Semaine Sainte, which explained the many rites and observances to be followed during the most important period in the Christian calendar, the Holy Week.

The original cover was adorned la fanfare, a handtooled pattern edged in gilt. Fanfare, which was a style popular in the 17th century, required tremendous skill on the part of the bookbinder and was reserved for books of great importance.

Poetry in Bloom

This cover design, originally crafted by Riviere and Son, centres around a sensitive plant (mimosa pudica) surrounded by chambers containing snowdrops and other richly hued and contrasting flowers, foliage and butterflies. The original binding was used for The Sensitive Plant and Early Poems by Percy Bysshe Shelley and is a celebration of the many moods of the creative spirit.
