André Gide, Les Faux-monnayeurs

This novel by André Gide is crafted following the great French tradition of binding. The novel is sewn with five hemp cords and linen thread. It is crafted with endcaps, edge-to-edge gold covered paper doublures and brown goatskin suede flyleaves. The edges are gilt with deckle edges with gold-leaf. The cover is crafted form natural calf leather, dyed in various shades of pink, embossed, and powdered with gold. On the boards, there are burled walnut inlaid panels.
