24.01.2022 Soon to be listed in our website store (as soon as we finish making them!)... Hand made "bone" folders, but made from Ebony, Padauk, and beautifully figured ringed Gidgee. Functional, tactile, beautiful. We're happy to custom make these to any size and shape you like, or you can change their shape with sand paper. We finish without a surface coating; they're sanded and friction polished to be smooth so they're gentle on paper, but still with a bit of timber texture. #bookbinding #bookbinder #bookarts #buchbinder #atelier #binding #handmade #wood #woodwork #timber #ebony #bonefolder #tool #padauk #gidgee #bookstagram #yarraranges #sassafraspress #bookbindery
21.01.2022 A new dip pen on the lathe... This time it's a naturally coloured purpleheart, with a Macassar Ebony grip divided by thin Ash bands. It'll be an oblique, available on our website soon (or DM if you want to reserve it!) #dipen #dippencalligraphy #nib #nibholder #calligraphypen #calligraphy #obliquepen #obliquepenholder #purpleheart #ebony #ash #handmade #madebyhand #wood #woodworking #lathe #ink #drawing #writing #handlettering #yarravalley #sassafraspress
