Book #364

Secret Ledger of Albizzi

I made another model of a 14th Century stationary binding for today. This is based on the Secret Ledger and Memorial Book that belonged to Pepo Albizzi. I was able to examine a model of this binding and get notes about it from Barb Korbel a few years ago, so I think I managed a decent model based on that information.

Hi, Rhonda. I am a teacher, artist, and medieval reenactor. I'm very interested in recreating the Albrizzi ledger. Can you post a tutorial?

Thanks for your interest, Fil. I don't think I'll be writing a tutorial for this any time soon - it would be quite an endeavor and many hours of work that I don't have time for right now, sorry!
