The special edition has the most beautiful binding, with a mica pattern printed on the front cover and on all the paper for the written content. The specially coloured edition has a mica pattern on the front cover and specially-coloured paper for the content. The deluxe edition has a mica pattern on the front cover and Chinese-white (ground oyster shell) brush-dyed writing paper for the content.
