In August, we recalled our vision of Tolkien's works bound in leatherette on a board with real bindings on the spine in the style of Renaissance knurled bindings created by Krakow craftsmen.
As we have shown many times on the blog and on store shelves, binding books in leather gives a lot of scope for a craftsman - and a bookbinder artist at the same time. It's safe to say that we are limited mainly by our imagination and book material.
Today we present a different version of The Ruler, a more minimalist, but still exclusive book bound in leather.
