The Pillar: Traditional Japanese Fukurotoji Bookbindings

By A Mystery Man Writer

Description
Traditional Japanese bindings are a bit different from the Western bindings we are accustomed to. The easiest way to describe them, is that they are used exactly the opposite from how we use our books. They are opened from left to right and read from right to left in columns. A book that recently came through the lab was bound in the opposite manner too – the pages were folded, but the loose edges comprised the spine with the folds at the fore edge. The paper was a soft, medium weight Mulberry, the same type of paper we use for mending.
