I found this beautiful little book in the local 'antique shoppe'.
It's a wonderfully tactile, leather bound, gilt-edged book.
The leather is so so soft and feels just lovely in your hand.

In my vision of the rest;

books books lovely books - again!
I love books; they're my friends..............
I have quite a collection of musty, old paperbacks whose colours and patterns are so beautiful and inspiring. Here's a selection of them (these aren't my photos, these are better than anything I can shoot, but I have these books which I stroke and love)

Book of Art
These beautiful works of art are created by turning and folding pages of a book. They are wonderfully made by Veronica Salazar/Book of Art. They are just so amazing.
