Petite Tomes Parchment are truly beautiful...but what are they?
During the French Revolution, reading was forbidden in order to prevent the spread of rebellious stories about the monarchy. During that time, printers produced couverture muette or "mute books" – books with blank covers – to avoid detection.
Paying homage to those historic 18th-century tomes, these exquisite books are entirely crafted by hand, from the torn paper and simple cover boards to the naturally stained linen bindings and timeworn labels.
The only difference? The pages within are blank.
Faithful reproductions of couverture muette books from the late 18th century
Crafted and bound entirely by hand
Stained using natural pigments
Each page is hand cut with water, then dried under the sun for the appearance of a genuine antique
Each book varies in number of blank pages
Dimensions: 7"W x 7.5"D x 8"H
Weight: 11 lbs.
Please allow 2-3 weeks for shipping

I am sorry but they look like poncy telephone directories tied together with string.
