The ๐’๐ž๐œ๐ซ๐ž๐ญ ๐๐ž๐ฅ๐ ๐ข๐š๐ง ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ข๐ง๐  is a method of bookbinding that uses primary and secondary sewing, resulting in a distinct thread pattern on the cover and spine of the finished book. The primary sewing is used to create the text block. The secondary sewing is used to bind the text block to the cover boards.ย This binding was invented in the mid-1980s by Anne Goy, a Belgian bookbinder. She was looking for a Western version of the traditional Japanese stab binding techniques. She wanted a book that would open flat but with the appearance of stab sewing.

The book cover is made using three separate pieces: front cover, back cover, and spine piece. The spine piece is held in place only by threads passing over and under it. It creates a distinct thread pattern on the cover and it is a very sturdy binding that allows the book to open completely flat.

The journal has 56 pages of top quality acid-free eco paper of 240 gsm (130 lbs), ๐‚๐จ๐ซ๐ข๐š๐ง๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ข ๐๐š๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ,ย a French paper that resembles handmade papers of an older time. It is made with 50% recycled paper, 40% cellulose, and 10% cotton, and the surface is cured with natural gelatin. It is ideal for several types of inks, pencil, pastel, charcoal, and printmaking. This luxurious paper with its vintage color and style is the perfect mat for photos of any kind (even monochromatic).ย

Shipping

I will pack your journal very carefully and post it by registered mail. It is more expensive than the simple "air-mail" service, but it will let us both breathe freely and not worry about the fate of your journal. I will email you the tracking number, so that you can track your journal during its journey to you.

๐Ÿšš Standard Shipping is fulfilled by National Post. Greek postal service needs 3-10 business days (for registered/express delivery), to deliver to your country's inward Office of Exchange (local post). From then on, it depends on your local post. I have estimated the delivery time to the best of my knowledge, but there might be delays that I cannot predict.

๐Ÿš€For faster and more accurate service, please ๐œ๐ก๐จ๐จ๐ฌ๐ž ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฌ๐ก๐ข๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ ๐ซ๐š๐๐ž ๐ญ๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐œ๐จ๐ซ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฉ๐จ๐ง๐๐ฌ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฉ๐š๐ซ๐ญ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฐ๐จ๐ซ๐ฅ๐. European orders are shipped via DHL. USA and most Canadian orders are shipped via FedEx. If your address is considered "remote" by the carrier, I will revert it to National Post. Please note that courier service is not available for P.O. Boxes
