Book Synopsis
Associated with the Islamic Golden Age, Persian Safavid-style designs represented a high point in the art of the book. Symmetry is the hallmark of these bindings which feature medallions, a pentagonal envelope flap closure and elaborately decorated doublures (interior covers), exquisite creations in cut-out leather and gilding. Our cover portrays a remarkable leather filigree pattern incorporating handtooled motifs that retain an elegance and style even in our modern context.
