It’s silhouette first appears on the cover, then the construction is detailed on the first pages, the location of this gobelet determines the layout of the whole book and its silhouette reappears on the back cover. The stitched binding of the inner block is visible under the 160g pergamanta cover. When the book is pressed, the cyrillic characters of the gobelet can be read through the paper.
