Sophie Adde: Two Parakeets (Foiled Journal)

A FLAME TREE NOTEBOOK. Beautiful and luxurious the journals combine high-quality production and FSC-certified paper with magnificent art. Perfect as a gift, and an essential personal choice for writers, notetakers, travellers, students, poets and diarists. Features a wide range of well-known and modern artists, with new artworks published throughout the year.

BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED. The highly crafted covers are printed on foil paper, embossed then foil stamped, complemented by the luxury binding and rose red endpapers, all FSC-certified. The covers are created by our artists and designers who spend many hours transforming original artwork into gorgeous 3d masterpieces that feel good in the hand, and look wonderful on a desk or table.

PRACTICAL, EASY TO USE. Flame Tree Notebooks come with practical features too: a pocket at the back for scraps and receipts; two ribbon markers to help keep track of more than just a to-do list; robust ivory text paper, printed with lines; and when you need to collect other notes or scraps of paper the magnetic side flap keeps everything neat and tidy.

THE ARTIST. After completing her Masters Degree in Plastic Arts, Sophie Adde spent 7 years working in a textiles workshop. Following this experience which trained her in decorative patterns, she focused her work on botanicals and went on to set up her own interior design business. Her delightful paintings of garden birds are full of colour and pattern, plants and flowers.

THE FINAL WORD. As William Morris said, "Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful."
