Canterbury Journal (Diary, Notebook)
The cover design of this splendid journal is a reproduction of a gold-tooled book binding created in London in 1701. The slanted lines at the top and bottom of the design are referred to as ''cottage roof style,'' a frequent element of English book bindings in the 17th and 18th centuries.
A matte black background sets off tulips and other motifs which are illumined with iridescent red highlights.
Patterns of leaves and lacey accents are traced in gold foil.
Embossing adds dimensional detailing, while a ''hubbed'' spine treatment recalls tomes of old.
Gilded-gold page edging and an elegant ribbon bookmark round out the package.
160 lightly-lined writing pages provide plenty of space in which to write personal reflections or record favorite quotations or poems.
Acid-free, archival paper takes pen or pencil beautifully.
