This blue and gold Paperblanks Equinoxe Azure 2018 12-Month Diary reproduces a 1688 binding protecting L'office de la Semaine Sainte.
The original binding was adorned "a la fanfare", a handtooled pattern edged in gilt. "Fanfare", which was a style popular in the seventeenth century, required tremendous skill on the part of the bookbinder and was reserved for books of great importance.
