A4 Distressed Brown Leather Journal

Rustic A4 (30 x 22cms), genuine leather hand-bound journal/notebook. Possibilities are endless - use for an Inspiration Diary, Dream Recording, Art or Travel Journal.
Made with a stunning brown, distressed look, genuine leather hide. Bound with a black waxed linen thread and is teamed with 130gsm artists cartridge paper signatures (signatures are the individual paper books which have been sewn inside, 8 in total, each consisting of 8 folded pages). 128 leaves which will give you 250 write-able pages. I have tea stained the write-able pages using organic French Earl Grey tea for an Old World look. There is a mix of quite heavily stained pages but also softer tonal staining as well. The paper I have chosen for my journals is a premium grade fine tooth artist’s drawing cartridge paper with good erasability. Perfect for finished drawing in pen, pencil, marker, charcoal & pastel.
Where possible I like to work with the natural edging of the hide to give the journal added character. Each hide is different with many lovely quirks - holes, differing colour gradients and natural blemishes. This particular piece has a hole, roughed up edge and marks and on the wrap around cover. Attached wrap around lacing closes the journal. This is a sturdy 1.8-2mm leather and is quite firm. Of course being natural leather, will be strong and durable.
A feature of this journal is the inclusion of two of my own original art prints in the first signature at the front, flanked by sheets of gold metallic and black premium papers. Making this a very unique and special journal for the recording of all your art, precious words or dreams.
Journal arrives to you packaged in a recycled gift box.
