Our Enigma journal is inspired by a cover said to have been designed by Le Gascon, a legendary but little-known 17th-century bookbinder. Le Gascon was the inventor of the “pointillé” and “fanfare” styles, and his influence is felt throughout the rich bookbinding history that follows him. The original cover was made of red morocco leather embossed and gilded with rosettes, spirals and dotted lines.
