This book is made from vegetable tanned leather that is very soft to the touch. I have carved a motif of a (slightly imaginary) hummingbird into it, which I subsequently coloured with purple, blue, pink and yellow acrylic paint before sealing it with leather finish. Inside, the cover is clad in auburn felt.
This lovely cover holds 180 pages in A6 format (counted like conventional book pages). These have been hand-dyed by me with purple (72 pages), pink (72 pages), and coffee (36 pages).
