Gold Mountains Coptic
September 13th, 2012 | Link

Two-needle Coptic binding; 9-5/8″ high by 6-7/8″ wide, with 128 pages in 8 sections. The pages are Mohawk Superfine 100lb text weight in smooth soft white. The cover paper is Japanese Chiyogami paper, which is a mixture of kozo and sulphite. This particular paper is Chiyogami 288 from The Paper Place.

For this one, the paste-downs are a dark green Bugra from Hahnemühle, which I haven’t used before but I like very much — they hold up well against the PVA, with minimal curling or soaking through.
