A small, traditional style pocket photo album with screw-post bindings and a hinged hard cover.

The front of the album is covered in the famous William Morris "Iris" fabric, in lovely rich shades of red, golden yellow and blue on a deep indigo background. This was designed by William Morris in 1885 and is one of the most well-known of his textile designs.

The back cover and cover linings are in ocean blue art paper, which matches the deep blue pages and tones perfectly with the blues of the fabric cover.

The edges of the covers are wrapped with "Oakshot" cotton hand-lined bookcloth in a deep golden colour. The cloth is woven with golden threads in one direction and dark red the other, giving it an interesting effect, which matches beautifully with the golden and red irises in the cover cloth.

The album is approx 8" x 6" (outside measurement) with a usable page area of approx 6.75" x 6", to take one 6" x 4" or 6" x 4.25" photo per page.

The screw-posts for the binding are brass, with a slightly matt finish, to match the cover materials.

There are 12 pages of smooth 300gsm heavy-weight Canford card, in "Ocean" blue, with card spacers between, to allow room for photos. Each page is pre-scored at the bound edge, so it will turn easily, without unsightly crumpling.

Please note that I do not recommend placing Polaroid photos on facing pages, as these are typically much thicker than standard photo printing paper. Also, the construction of polaroid photos, means that they fade more quickly than standard prints and will stick together more easily.

Packaging and UK signed-for postal delivery are included in the price.

The International postage price is to make up the difference between this cost and postage abroad.
