Limited to 26 copies only, the Lettered Edition is printed on a mouldmade Magnani Pescia 130gsm by master printers Nomad Letterpress of Cheltenham.
The case is a custom hand-made wooden box by expert box maker Peter Canham. The lid is made out of four pieces of wood to ensure no warping in humidity. It also has a unique blue stone embedded within the wood and will be laser etched with the author and title.
The spine of the case has an etched design done by Peter. A piece of blue indigo wood has been inset to the wood and had a blue Lapis Lazuli point cut into the block. Inside, the box has been lined in Royal Dark Blue suedel by Ludlow Bookbinders and comes with a matching blue ribbon for retrieving the book.
The book inside is handbound by Ludlow Bookbinders in finest black Harmatan leather and has a blue obelisk stone embedded in the cover. There is an all over two colour stamped design reaching across both boards and the spine.
The book boards are 6mm with chamfered edges, and the book is gilded gold across all three edges. Inside the book there are marbled endpapers by the amazing Freya Scott of Paperwilds and a further 9 tipped in colour plates.
This edition is signed by both the author and the artist.
