Paperblanks Poetry In Bloom Journal Collection

Paperblanks Poetry in Bloom design was crafted by Riviere and Son and made with green morocco within fillets of gilt.  The centerpiece is a sensitive plant surroudered by chambers of snowdrops and contrasting flowers, foliage and butterflies.  The senstive plant or 'Shy" plant has leaves that shrink away from the touch.  It closes tight in the dark and opens to the light.  The original binding was used for The Sensitive Plant and Early Poems by Percy Bysshe Shelley. 

Paperblanks Poetry in Bloom Collection consists of Journals in four sizes and a 5 x 7 inch address book. A metal clasp closure provides a functional period detail. The Paperblanks Poetry in Bloom journals are decorated on cover and spine and have an aditional decoration known as book edge printing that reveals a pattern on the book edge when the book is closed.
