Something to lust after – a miniature lying press and plough made by hand in Australia using native woods by master woodworker Frank Wiesner. I do not know the name of the photographer, but he/she captured the intimacy of this useable work of art. What is most remarkable to me is that many common tools used daily by bookbinders haven’t changed since mediaeval times.
