Majestic Red.
Delivered in perfect new condition, and even has that new book smell. The cover is a bright beautiful red with a velvet cloth feel. I started reading it and it's a part spiritual, part magical and part historical adventure around the world through written stories and illustrations.

Beautiful and great conversation starter
I love Phaidon “coffee table books”. They’re beautiful objects in-and-of-themselves and beautifully edited. I love this Christmas book as a conversational starter to leave out during holiday gatherings and parties. It’s great for multiple generations to see things they remember and share stories. I reccomend storing it with your Christmas decor so it’s a pleasant surprise every year when you bring everything out at the start of the season.
