Description
It is an original stationery notebook made in the bookbinder's workshop. It is made of sheets of kraft paper. This paper, well known for its use in packaging, can also be used like standard drawing paper. It is, rightly, highly appreciated for its ease of use, its raw quality and its versatility. Its lined surface enables the pigments of dry artistic techniques to adhere to it (charcoal, sanguine...). Its long, unbleached natural fibres (which give it its characteristic 'raw' colour) provide the resistance and flexibility needed to use wet artistic techniques (Indian ink...)
 
Description of the inside 
Set of 8 folios, each composed of 5 folded sheets, sewn by hand. The endpapers, thick and solid, keep the interior intact.
 
Bookbinding Technique 
The folios sewn together form a durable block which is then enclosed in a rigid cardboard structure. This structure is covered with suede (the underside of the leather) revealing a veined texture on the spine and flap. The plain paper was chosen for its robustness and the hand-made marbled paper for its patterns and shimmering colours. The structure with a flap reinforces the protection of the notebook. The elastic fastening, holding down each of the corners, offers a touch of colour illuminating the overall look of the notebook.
 
It can be made with other papers (90gsm, 160gsm, 224gsm).
