Wabi Sabi Sketchbooks for watercolours, gouache, ink, pencil, collage and stitching embrace the tactile beauty of handmade cotton rag paper. Their design is inspired by American poet Emily Dickinson's 'packets' (bundles of poetry she kept tied up in string) and the Japanese wabi sabi aesthetic of simplicity and incompleteness. As seen in Country Homes & Interiors magazine Sustainable & ethical sketchbooks Sustainable, handmade and fair trade, these Wabi Sabi Sketchbooks are made only with natural materials: cotton, linen and beeswax. They are unadorned and coverless, yet practical and hardwearing. They feature exposed spine stitching and a woven linen ribbon to keep them securely closed. The number of pages varies by size, but they are all medium-surface 210gsm cotton rag paper that's made from offcuts from the fashion industry. This reduces landfill waste and contributes to environmental protection. A versatile sketchbook artists will love These Wabi Sabi cotton rag sketchbooks lie flat on a table for easy use, thanks to the French linkstitch binding. They will also turn 360 degrees in a circle for displaying the contents. Because they're bound by hand with time-honoured bookbinding techniques, they'll last your lifetime. The paper is acid-free and sized so it's suitable for both wet and dry artwork.
