Jane Eyre quote . handbound leather journal . deep plum (320 pgs)
Description
"I am no bird; and no net ensnares me;I am a free human being
with an independent will...”
—Jane Eyre (1847), Charlotte Brontë
The first page of the journal has a portrait of Charlotte Bronte, captioned with the above quote from her beloved novel, "Jane Eyre". I can almost imagine Brontë (or Jane!) herself using a journal much like this!
The buttery leather is a deep plum; a burgundy ribbon wraps around the book and then around the button, protecting the pages within and keeping the book securely closed.
This journal measures approximately 5½" x 4¼" and 1½" thick.
It boasts 320-pages (both sides) of good quality white unlined 28 lb./105 gsm writing paper with handtorn edges - it's acid free, archival, and 3rd party certified to the standards of the Forest Stewardship Council (high quality paper with a conscience!). The journal opens flat so you can write all the way into the margins. The page sections have been hand-stitched to the leather cover with beeswaxed Irish linen thread, which is visible on the spine - it's a very sturdy and attractive binding.
Each book comes with a little "card of interest" containing information about your book (the history of the binding, the type of stitch) - which makes a lovely addition as a gift.

+ $5 Engraving up to 3 initials by freehand leather burning
