1 review for Schuyler Wide Margin Canterbury KJV, Dark Purple Goatskin Bible
Tami Russo (verified owner) –
THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BIBLE I’ve had. I thought I would never find a replacement for my old OXFORD wide margin, but I believe I have found it! The craftsmanship is phenomenal, the binding is superb, and the beauty of this layout is beyond words! It is truly a work of art; pleasing to the eye, perfect to the touch, flawlessly bound! I was afraid the dark purple might be too gaudy, but it is very tasteful- almost black/brown. The color is distinguishable so that it is unique, yet it doesn’t scream “purple” – it’s very subtle. Every Bible has a little trade off- If I were to change one thing, I would trade the Concordance for a slightly thicker paper. Yet, the paper is thick enough ( not thin by any means), the pages turn very easily, and feels incredibly smooth to the touch. The Cambridge maps are gorgeous! One last thing- I LOVE the typeface. The thickness of ink combined with the font size makes it so much more readable! My eyes have dimmed over the years and my Oxford was becoming harder to read. This one slight change is such an improvement to the readability.
Every time I read my Bible, I am aesthetically delighted! I thought that to transition from my good old Oxford wide margin would involve a grieving process – but I am so pleased that I didn’t allow my skepticism to override my decision to purchase this beautiful Bible!
