Middle-earth March - Day 1 

Today’s the day, an epic month full of Middle-earth bliss has started! As a special treat, we wanted to show you one of the most luxurious (and probably most expensive) editions of Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Rings”. It is limited to 1111 pieces and bound in white calf leather. The intricate illustrations, or illuminations to be more precise, remind of medieval books in old, really old libraries. Each chapter starts with an elaborate letter and several pictures in vibrant colours embellish the pages. We might post some look-inside-pictures one of these days. It is an absolutely stunning book that comes with a wonderful map of Middle-earth on heavy paper that resembles parchment. The editors sent a pair of cotton gloves along with it, normally used by archives and museums. So, we hope you do get a small impression of the particularity of this treasure.
