Luxuriate in the brass and regal blue tones of this Blue Luxe cover
design. The original book, crafted in the heart of Amsterdam in
1715, was bound in goatskin with elaborate gold tooling. Contained
inside the volume was the Oratio Dominica (Lord’s Prayer) in
almost 150 languages and dialects, compiled by English courtier
John Chamberlayne, creating a document of global appeal.The
intricate details of this design reflect the tapestry of cultures
in its original pages. The translations spanned from Europe and
Asia to Arabia, Persia, Syria and Turkey. Chamberlayne, who was
a writer and translator, spoke 16 languages himself.Let the
many cultures that once lived within this 18th-century binding
inspire you against Blue Luxe’s opulent backdrop.
