Grolier Ornamentali Journal: Lined Ultra

Commissioned by Jean Grolier (1479-1565), this rich looking and beautiful design is a staple of the Grolier Journal. At his death, Grolier had accumulated one of the greatest, most stunningly beautiful private libraries in the world. Each of his books, whether commissioned for himself or acquired throughout his lifetime, was of extraordinary quality, in a style described as both "quiet and simple, yet rich and flowing." This journal is based on one of his last great commissions, a gold-tooled marbled brown leather creation with an interlaced curving design of single-line fillets and floral tools filling out the six-pointed star. This rich and intricate Grolier Journal has 144 pages and really feels and looks expensive. An extraordinary gift! Paperblanks journals are exceptionally Eco friendly journals. This English publisher melds exquisite craftsmanship with Eco friendly ethics. Certified sustainable forest pulp provides the acid-free paper for these journals, and their binder boards are made from 100% recycled paper. A self-imposed "carbon tax" proportional to the GHG releases rounds out a list of eco merits this company has achieved. A spacious memento pouch will keep your loose papers organized and a ribbon marker takes you right back to where you left off. The Grolier lined writing journal has a very nice metal clasp for a closer.
