The book is undated but I'd estimate it to be from the 1940's. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e When I acquired it, the book was bound in plain textured navy leather, with simple gilt lettering to the spine. It didn't feel like the binding did justice to Jane Austen so I contacted one of my incredible book restorers and asked if she could turn it into something more worthy of Austen! The result is stunning. She has hand painted a portrait of Anne Elliot looking out over the sea, surrounded by pink flowers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe binding and artwork was done by \u003cspan\u003eAnna Yevtukh-Squire and you can find more of her beautiful work here... https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/annayevtukhbooks\/\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is in excellent condition with only light scuffing to the leather. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, the pages are clean and bright, with only light age toning and occasional foxing. There are occasional pencilled lines in the margin.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions approximately 18cm x 13cm x 2.5cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book will arrive hand wrapped in patterned wallpaper and ribbon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI use a range of eco friendly, 100% recyclable jiffy bags and boxes, and whenever possible I use brown paper tape. The green bubble wrap is oxo-degradable and the clear bubble wrap is 100% recyclable. I also reuse boxes when I feel it's appropriate (if the boxes are sturdy enough).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Vintage Bookworm UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56992692765045,"sku":null,"price":115.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0539\/9271\/8525\/files\/DE8769D7-1463-49C8-9CB8-58B3C468BBF7.jpg?v=1774375319","url":"https:\/\/thevintagebookworm.co.uk\/products\/1907-sense-and-sensibility-by-jane-austen-custom-unique-full-leather-binding-illustrated-copy","provider":"The Vintage Bookworm UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
