Its original two-tone book cloth binding, naturally aged pages and rich patina all tell part of that story, making every mark a reminder that this book has lived a life long before it reaches yours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI've carefully finished the cover with elegant gold foil \u003cstrong\u003e\"Guests\"\u003c\/strong\u003e lettering while preserving all of the original character that makes it unique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne thing I've always loved about old books is that they wear differently to modern ones. The original book cloth has softened over decades of use, the page edges have developed a beautiful warm patina, and every little imperfection adds to the character.

The instant I picked it up and saw the hand stitched binding and patina on the pages I had to have it. I could imagine the pages being filled with guest messages, stories and childrens sketches. I couldn't believe that this gorgeous book had never had any writing added to it ...... lucky for me and you if you decide to make this book your own. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLuxury lodges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoutique accommodation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistoric homes\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVineyards and cellar doors\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeritage buildings\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMuseums\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArt galleries\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEstate homes\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFamily holiday homes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an authentic antique, this book shows signs of age including natural wear, marks and beautifully aged page edges.
