The Lotus Book combines two separate elements: a 40-page wedding album set in a custom-made leather box; and a maple wood base beneath it with a portrait book drawer. The lotus design on the box cover and album end papers relates to the wedding motif of the couple. The portrait book is covered with fine linen cloth, silk-screen printed in black and gold layers. Custom elements include a square knob engraved with the couple’s interlocking initials, and a brass divider between the two structural elements.
