Marbled Journal - Abalone
This hard-back journal features an original marbled paper on its covers. All our marbled papers and books are carefully handmade in our south London studio.
The paper for this book was marbled with an Abalone colourway, available in the indicated patterns below. Lucy McGrath, founder of Marmor Paperie, drew inspiration for this colourway from iridescent abalone shells; deep teals, delicate greens and electric pinks are accented with glittering gold veins.
[TABS]Personalise
Make your book perfect for you by choosing your preferred pattern, size and inside pages.
You can also personalise your book by adding an engraved monogram or name. Names or initials are stamped manually in gold foil onto the centre of the front cover, and our Maker Mark is foiled on the reverse.
Durable
We use acrylic paint for its durability and brightness. The paint won’t rub off or dissolve but, because we don't use mass-manufacturing treatments, the papers are not coated. We recommend keeping them away from water where possible to avoid warping or bubbling.

Each book contains 240 pages (120 leaves), made from lovely ivory-toned Italian paper, with a choice of subtle narrow lines or blank laid paper.

Every item is unique
All our products are made using original marbled papers, individually made by hand in our studio in London. Marbling is a process combining print-making, science and art, made by floating paint in a tray of thickened water and transferring it onto paper.
This means no two books are the same - so yours may not perfectly match the photos but it will be just as beautiful.
add an extra personal touch
We use hot-foil stamping to add your choice of words onto the cover of your item. Use the live preview feature to help select the positioning and foil colour for your personalisation.
