The Arcanum editions are a homage to the finest traditional bookbinding techniques. Bound in full goatskin leather, with hand-marbled endpapers, raised bands, and unique Renaissance-period design motifs, each edition is strictly limited and hand-numbered, and comes with accompanying collector rights which entitle the owner to retain a unique edition number throughout the series.
“
Arcanum signifies any thing that is hid, any secret incorporeal virtue in natural things, partaking of a perpetual and immortal life, derived upon it from heaven, which also may be multiplied by the Spagyrical art above its former condition.

The part which came
from earth to earth returns,
But what descended from ethereal shores
High heaven’s resplendent temples
welcome back.
