This striking Art Deco design comes from the celebrated British bookbinder Sybil Pye. It was crafted to hold a collection of William Wordsworth’s poems illustrated by Thomas Sturge Moore. One of the youngest pre–First World War women binders, Pye was the only binder in England who specialized in inlaid leather bindings.

The sturdy design always holds its shape, and the lid flap can fold around to create an open presentation case to showcase the items within.

• Well-crafted design pencil box is highly sturdy and always holds its shape
• Additional interior storage box for smaller items
• Paperblanks bookmark with historical details of the design
• 8.75" x 1.25" x 2.75"
