A little old-world charm, with a secret tucked inside.
This vintage folio copy of The Story of My Life by George Sand has been given a new life as a handmade hollow book safe. With its navy cover featuring a charming puppet illustration, it looks like a wonderfully unusual vintage book on the outside but there's a secret waiting inside.
The original papers have been carefully retained at the front of the book before you reach the hidden compartment, which is lined with a beautiful blue floral paper. A lovely little surprise that complements the navy cover.
