The design for the cover of this one-of-a-kind photo album is inspired by the “pictures of the floating world” or “ukiyo-e” woodblock prints from 17th century Japan. Flora and fauna were common themes used during this era.

The handmade "Floating World" book can be used both as a photo album or guestbook and makes an ideal gift for weddings or similar festive occasions.

My illustration of entwined leaves are printed directly onto ivory linen. The back of the album is covered with rich, chocolate-coloured bookcloth. The heavy cardstock pages of the album are separated by beautifully patterned glassine (pergamin) sheets to protect your photos and also to prevent any writing from transferring to the opposite page.

A satin ribbon to tie the album is optional. Please indicate when buying if you want the album to have such a bow.
