Bugra Aquamarine Blue Secret Belgian Blank Journal

Bugra Aquamarine Blue Secret Belgian Blank Journal has a 6" x 9" (152.4mm x 228.6mm) 100% Cotton writing surface. This book is as lay-flat as a sketchbook or journal as you can get. This paper takes pencil, ink, and other print media with no bleed through to the other side. The inside features a Burgundy Bugra paper to match the Irish Linen thread.

This is my go-to notebook for all things important to me and the bindery studio.

Hand-bound with a Secret Belgian (Crisscross) binding structure for a unique writing and drawing experience.

Secret Belgian binding, also known as crisscross binding, is a bookbinding technique that uses two types of sewing. The result is a distinct thread pattern on the book's cover and spine.

More About Bugra Paper:
Hahnemuhle mould-made Bugra papers, named after the Book and Graphics trade fair in Leipzig in the 1920s. Produced on a cylinder mould machine with genuine deckle edges. It is a 100% alpha cellulose, duo-surface paper, with a laid, toothy texture on one side, and a smooth texture on the other, which gives it its distinctive surface.
