2025 DIARY AZURE ULTRA DAY-AT-A-TIME
The 1688 edition of L'office de la Semaine Sainte, a Latin liturgical book, was protected by a gold-plated leather binding and contained the many rites and observances to be followed during the week leading up to Easter, the most important period in the Christian calendar.
Reproduced on our Azure cover with a vibrant blue background, the antique design features an elaborate gilt-edged tendril motif. The gold-tooled decoration adorning this cover is a style known as fanfare, an elaborate, handcrafted pattern edged in gilt. Especially popular in the early 1700s, the style dates back as far as the early 1500s and required tremendous skill on the part of the bookbinder. Because of the intricacy and expense associated with this goldwork, the technique was reserved for decorating books of great importance.
