Our Doves Binding jewellery collection is inspired by an English, gilt-edged, white pigskin binding on ‘Paradise Lost’ made at Doves Bindery in 1903.
Ivy leaves and trellis-work in gold inlay adorn the cover with John Milton's quote around the borders:
'See golden days, fruitful of golden deeds, With joy and love triumphing.'
Paradise Lost, Book iii. Line 337
Broxb. 51.10
