The Moving Finger writes... '' Let this stunning journal inspire you to pen 1,000 poems! Our Great Omar Journal is inspired by an original sumptuous jeweled binding created for The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam by English binders Sangorski & Sutcliffe, called the ''Rolls-Royce of bookbinding.
Lost with the Titanic, the binding boasted more than 1,000 jewels and took two years to create. A subsequent re-creation of the design was destroyed during the London Blitz; some of the jewels were salvaged, however, and the binding re-created once more in 1982. This legendary binding inspires our journal cover. Let it spur a similar devotion and resolve in your writing!
