A Naked Page book is a fantastic coverless hand-bound book that’s ‘not-too-precious’, made for your messy experimentation and musings, inviting imperfection and spontaneity!
You’ll want to bring this 'work book' everywhere! Made with quality paper, sturdily bound together in a book that lies flat, and with age and adventures, gathers a lovely patina and even cute ‘dog ears’!
Choice of 120 pages (60 sheets) of 160gsm archival watercolor paper or 96 pages (48 sheets) of earthy banana leaf paper.
Beautiful vintage kantha cloth adorns the spine. Hand-stamped Indian Wood Block prints adorn the covers of the archival watercolor paper Naked Pages.
For years I brought this book with me to every show, as it was my trusty ‘scratch book” that I used to keep important notes from each event, make notes of which Hypatia books I had to work on that week, or new ideas for books, or materials to test.
That little book became so endearing to me, and I fell in love with its unique character and the little ‘dog ears’ it developed over time.
I never thought to make any to put into my booth until many customers noticed my little ‘dog-eared’ Naked Page book and said they wanted “That One!”
So… here you go! Happy to share the delight of these sweet Naked Pages, the newest from the Hypatia Book Arts studio!
You can find these Naked Page books at my booth this summer on Martha's Vineyard at the Vineyard Artisans Festivals! View my schedule here. See you there!
