The beauty of French link stitching
Glueing the spine with archival corn starch glue. Archival glue offers the bookbinder the opportunity to take the book apart without damaging it.
Sewing the one core headband with two beads of colours. As you can see, the core is just a plain piece of string. The reading ribbon has also been attached to the spine.
The headband is fixed in five signatures.

The head and endbands strengthen the structural integrity of the book in a highly ornamental way.
