This modest binding is stripped down to its ancient, elemental structure: paper, linen, wood. Packed sewing on double cords and structural endbands produce a binding that is strong, flexible and sculptural. A text block of rescued dictionary pages provides subtle pattern and a graceful flow.
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.
