Steampunk Lady (Foiled Pocket Journal)

Part of a series of handy, luxurious Flame Tree Pocket Books. Combining high-quality production with magnificent fine art, the covers are printed on foil in five colours, embossed then foil stamped. And they’re delightfully practical: a pocket at the back for receipts and scraps, two bookmarks and a solid magnetic side flap. These are perfect for personal use, handbags and make a dazzling gift. This example is based on 'Steampunk Lady'.

Imagine a world where steam is the main source of power, but the attitudes are distinctly futuristic – the romance of the past meets the technology of the future. This is the feel of steampunk. Steampunk fashion is immediately recognizable – it involves taking certain elements from the past, like brass goggles and top hats, and fusing them into a strangely cohesive whole.
