The Shiraz cover design is inspired by a magnificent late 16th-century Persian goatskin bookbinding originally produced in Shiraz, one of the cultural centres of the Safavid Empire. The original binding was crafted from black goatskin and embellished with embossing, gilding, hand-painted flowers, rosettes and delicate gold filigree. This exquisite piece was believed to have been commissioned by a Safavid prince and later became part of the collection of Suleiman the Magnificent, the longest reigning Ottoman Sultan. During the 16th century, Shiraz was renowned for its flourishing artistry, literature, poetry and gardens. The region’s artisans were celebrated for producing ornate, richly decorated manuscripts that were often traded with the Ottoman Empire. It was likely through this vibrant cultural exchange that the original binding reached Suleiman, himself a gifted poet, goldsmith and patron of the arts. By bringing this historic Persian design into the modern era, the Shiraz Ultra Lined Journal reflects centuries of craftsmanship and cultural splendour, making it an inspiring and meaningful companion for writers and creatives.
