The Pick of the Punch is a quirky vintage folio book, with a gold illustrated cover and plenty of character.
I’ve given this old book a new secret life as a handmade book safe, keeping its original olive green endpapers and adding a softly textured beige paper insert inside the hidden compartment that complements the vintage feel beautifully.
It looks right at home amongst your books, but open it up and you’ll find a secret space for the things you’d rather keep tucked away.
