Burn Drawings by Donna Ruff

THOMAS A KEMPIS. OPERA. NUREMBERG, 1494. FOLGER SHAKESPEARE LIBRARY: THIS VOLUME, ONE OF A VERY FEW EXISTING EXAMPLES OF A CHAIN BINDING, STILL RETAINS THE REMNANT OF THE HAND-WROUGHT CHAIN WHICH FASTENED IT SECURELY TO A SHELF. AT THE TIME OF THE PUBLICATION OF THIS BOOK IN THE 1490S, BOOKS WERE SO VALUABLE THAT THEY WERE OFTEN CHAINED IN PLACE TO FOIL THIEVES.

crofters handbook This book is made from my own handmade papers: peat, banana skin and linen rag from the Scalpay weaving shed in the Western Isles. A very chunk multi-section book - to be read by the fireside. Definately not travel size! Size of the book when closed: H 29.5cm W 22cm D 15.5cm Joanne B Kaar
