This elegant journal replicates a gilded lacquer 19th-century bookbinding crafted for an illuminated Persian manuscript. The original lacquer work design was created with delicate layers of paint, a coating of shellac which was then carefully sanded to a shine, and subtle applications of gold leaf.

Our reproduction is embellished with eye-catching iridescent highlights. Raised embossing adds dimensional detail.
