This hand-sewn journal has a mosaic of Italian cities on the covers. This is a new paper that I recently bought. Excellent for a travel journal. Inside endpapers are blue and linen sewing thread is orange, yellow and blue. The book is sewn in the coptic stitch so that the pages lie completely flat for easy use. The back cover is a piece of orange mulberry paper. Inside are 112 lined pages for all your writing. SIZE is 5.5" x 8."
