Square Japanese Cloth Bound Sketchbook, Sky Blue

A perfect square of bright flawless colour for this demonstrably graphic object, so neat that it looks 3D rendered. Do not be deceived by this feeling of modernity - only analogue bookbinding can yield this precision using stitch construction and a sturdy flexible Japanese book cloth cover. At the junction between sketch and notebook, this unusual format would make a great journaling companion where mixed media, pen, pencil, colour and inks meet the page. One distinctive and original touch is its mid-light grey Rivoli paper, a welcome backdrop for bursts of contrasted colour to set against; oil pastels or waxy crayons would make a great pairing for this paper.

As a gift, this notebook looks very fashionable and expensive. A little matching Kaweco clutch pencil would look very nice indeed.
