My Thoughts:

I have been reading NIV, Artisan Collection Bible, Cloth over Board, Teal Floral, Designed Edges under Gilding, Red Letter Edition, Comfort Print the last few weeks.

This is a very classy and elegant looking Bible both outside and inside. The cover is stunning with a two toned pink flowers on branches against a teal background with musical notes floating across the cover. 

The pages are gilded in gold tone with musical notes on it. Like the description says if you fan the pages the musical notes dance off the edges- it’s stunning! The page color is an antique white and are a little thicker than your standard Bible pages but, not much thicker. You will have bleed through with highlighters and such.

This isn’t the only cover in this series either, there are four hand painted cover designs to choose from and all of them are unique.

This is the NIV Comfort Print Typeface. The words of our Messiah Jesus are in red.

The books of the Bible don’t have an introduction. 

The pages are laid out in a single column format with the words are closer in the middle. There are wide lined margins for notes, journaling, and even art journaling. The back of the Bible you have several lined note pages.

There are a few foot notes within the scriptures. The Bible doesn’t have any maps, glossary, or concordance. The Bible also includes two ribbon book marks with one in the Old Testament and the other in the New Testament.

This is a stunning looking Bible to give as a gift or for you to study the word of God. The most important thing is it is God's word.
