Blog post #6




The handmade book that you see here is the Romeo and Juliet novel. It has been made over to "steam punk" style. Steam punk style is a genre of science-fiction that was around in the 1980's or the Victorian time. The cover is made over with clay. The craftsmanship is unique, rare, and extraordinary. It is held together with string laces. The designs on the cover are artistic and original, its texture is exquisite . This book really stood out to me because it is an antique, making it very hard to find and distinct.
