The German three-piece Bradel Binding has an elegant, streamlined look. Unlike the Simplified Binding, the spine is both rounded and backed, and the boards are not shaped at the spine. This model features a spine of thinned leather over a stiffened paper “bonnet,” rolled leather endbands, and boards that are attached to the text block after being covered with decorative paper.
These models were made as demos while teaching a bookbinding workshop. They may include marks or notes made to aid students. Colors and patterns will vary. Cutaway bindings revealing structural features are sometimes available.
