DescriptionThis glorious design comes from Sangorski & Sutfcliffe, a world-renowned British bindery best known for their bejewelled cover of Omar Khayyam's Rubaiyat. They were especially celebrated for their jewelled bindings, like the one reproduced here. Originally crafted in 1922 to house Rudyard Kipling's 1897 "Recessional" poem written for Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, it incorporated real turquoise, aquamarine and ruby gemstones.
