Hand Tooled Leather Pentagram Blank Book - Book Of Shadows
This item is a hand tooled leather bound blank book with a decorated pentagram embossed on the front cover. The back cover has the Wiccan Rede framed by oak leaves on it.
Measuring 4-1/2" by 6" and a little over an inch thick, it has 100 4-1/4" by 5-1/2" leaves (200 pages) of 24 lb. Southworth parchment paper. This is an ideal book to use as a book of shadows.
A pair of sphinxes face each other on the lower portion of the front cover. The pentagram is deeply embossed standing out from the cover and is decorated. The overall tone of the dyed leather as well as the general funkiness in the handtooling, binding and finishing of the leather conveys an impression of great antiquity. The pages are bound with lace and also make a bookmark. The pages do not look machine cut and convey craftsmanship of a pre-industrial era.
