Description: Fairies.....the 'elemental spirits' of ancient myth. Every culture has its tales of fairies, their powers, and their deeds... The cover of this journal is embossed with a fairy perched on a sickle moon. To judge by the fairy's provocative pose she is a manifestation of Lilith, Lamia, Eve - the seductive female spirit of the Bible, the Talmud, and many other mythologies. -----'Blind Dragon rides Lilith the Sinful – may she be extirpated quickly in our days, Amen!'----- -----'Lilith, who wanders about at night, vexing the sons of men and causing them to defile themselves.....'----- In modern Wicca practice Lilith is the Goddess the Coven, personified by the Priestess ----- 'the personification of erotic dreams, the suppressed desire for delights'----- I think of this journal as a book-of-shadows, a book of spells or a 'grimoire' in the Pagan Wicca tradition. The cover is handmade from vintage buffalo hide and is dyed with a natural 'mahogany brown' dye. It contains 100 pages/200 usable sides of plain, unlined cartridge (drawing) paper. The cover measures 8x6 inches (20x15cm), which means it is about the same size as A5. There is a tie-strap of matching goatskin thong for fastening. This is a tough and durable book that would make an excellent personal diary or book of spells. The folios of paper are stitched into the leather cover with a traditional 'Italian' stitch - a style of binding that guarantees a long life. The paper is suitable for drawing, sketching or writing in many media, including water colour and fountain pen. I love working with leather, but for ethical reasons I only use vintage leather for my books- ie leather from working animals that have come to the end of their lives.
