This is a 'living notebook' made from unprocessed Japanese red pine shaved to an astounding thinness and then dried. The soft fragrance of red pine is present. Meticulously hand-bo und; soft cover. Cover sheath. 100 pages. Size A6 ( 4"x6"). Lightweight and suitable for travel. As each page is alive, you will notice changes over time - perhaps a change of color, some slight warping or a tear along the grain - please enjoy this natural unfolding. How different it is to face a moment of nature than a blank page.. the forest welcomes you with its own poetry and presence. Pen, pencil, brush pen, etc may be used - only mechanical pencil is not recommended. Show more
