Materials

Ribbons

This edition features seven graduating-color ribbons, allowing ​for a variety of navigation systems for each book.​

Cover

Our covers are not glued together from many fragments of material. Each cover is made with a contiguous piece of top-grain leather, which is durable, flexible, and tactile.

Binding

The pages of these books are not glued to the binding, they're sewn. Smyth-sewn binding allows them to lay flat while open, close with less strain, and remain resilient for many years of daily use.

Paper

The paper used for the Liturgy of the Hours, Second Edition is durable with excellent brightness and opacity. Mixed paperweights are strategically used to aid in quick flipping, which means pages featuring recurring prayers are printed on thicker paper for easy accessibility.
