Enlightenment Journal

This journal's cover reproduces an eighteenth-century book binding by Antoine Michel Padeloup, royal binder to King Louis XV of France. The original gold-tooled leather cover held a book of the Holy Week Offices. Padeloup's exquisite designs influenced book arts for generations. Inside the journal, premium smooth-finish 120 gsm paper takes pen or pencil beautifully. Light gray lines subtly guide your writing. Paper is acid-free and of archival quality. Tuck notes, mementos, and more in the pocket inside the back cover. The matching elastic closure secures your journal. Interior endsheets complement the design. Sturdy hardcover binding. 160 pages. Popular small-format size -- 5'' wide x 7'' high -- fits easily in most bags and backpacks. Gold foil, embossed, gold gilded edges.
