Description

This is one of Kawashima's best works.  It has incredibly fine-grained lines on the yosegi that make up the "pages" of the books, and 24 tiny tiny splines (as shown in the photo).

Karakuri product description:

Last time, Mr. Ninomiya provided me with the Yosegi for the pages, but this time I made the Yosegi myself.

It's a simple pattern, but I had a hard time getting it just the way I wanted it, and I realized once again how skilled Mr. Ninomiya is.

I also changed the way I made the eight corner parts that represent the front and back covers, using a technique called spline joint.

This technique is used for both decoration and strength improvement.

The trick is the same as last time.

Get to the heart of the books and find the stamp.
