A beautiful vintage Cranford book case, carefully repurposed and given a new life as a one-of-a-kind, handbound watercolour sketchbook.
The original book features a blue slip cover, with a deep red spine decorated with an elegant cream and blue fleur design. Its classic design and rich colours make this a really special book to fill with your own artwork.
Inside, the original pages have been carefully removed and replaced with 50 pages of Arches Aquarelle 300gsm (140lb) watercolour paper. Made from 100% cotton, this artist-quality paper is perfect for watercolour and also works beautifully with gouache, ink, pencil and mixed media.
Each Three Birds and an Owl sketchbook is individually made by hand, retaining the character and history of the original book. No two are ever quite the same.
