Full red goatskin leather fine binding sewn on German tapes, laced into boards. The top edge decorated in alternating sections of gold and palladium prior to sewing. Double-core silk headbands. Pastedowns and flyleaves of a "Dutch curl" marbled paper. Boards tooled in gold and palladium with black leather onlays, with the titling placed along the curve within the black onlaid rings. The palladium lines continue over the board edges and onto the turn-ins. A single gilt line is tooled on the board edges, breaking at the palladium lines. Four gilt rules on the turn-ins which break at the palladium lines. The finished volume is to be housed in a full cloth clamshell box with a tooled leather label. Award for Design
