Highlights

  • Materials: leather, recycled paper, waxed cord

~ Black Leather Journal with Plain Classic Cover
~ Large A4 Size, 32cm x 23cm x 3.5cm (12.5 x 9 x 1.5 inches)
~ Black Vegetable Tanned Leather
~ Hand Bound, Unlined Recycled Paper
~ Personalisation (See below)

~Description~
Bound in a single thick piece of vegetable tanned leather, the same great quality leather that we make our carved books from, the cover of this journal is left plain. We make this one for those of you that prefer the natural, unadorned look of leather. Once we have hand cut the cover we give it a beautiful black finish which we buff to a satin sheen. This makes each book unique and the grain of your journal may vary from the image shown. The covers are held closed by two cords finished with leather beads.

With its large size it's great for those of you with a lot to write about. It makes a great personal journal, Book of Shadows, book of condolence or memorial book.

~Shipping Times~
This journal is not a stock item, when you buy it we will be making it especially for you. Please see our shop policies section for our current dispatch dates.

~Size & Binding~
32cm x 23cm x 3.5cm (12.5 x 9 x 1.5 inches)
Approximately 250 pages (500 sides) of A4 sized, unlined, recycled, paper.
The pages in this book are hand bound using a strong waxed cord. No glue is used, so the spine of the book cannot be broken, our binding is strong and permanent.

~Paper~
Our paper is 100% recycled and is a natural, off-white, oatmeal colour. It has a matt appearance, is slightly textured and it takes most fountain pens without 'bleeding'.
It's of archival quality which is great if you're planning on leaving your words for future generations!

~Personalisation~
We can add up to five letters (name or initials) to the bottom right corner of the front cover at no additional cost. We can add more text for a little extra.
Maybe you would really like to personalise your journal by having lots of text or even your own design on the cover. For prices please get in touch.

A fantastic journal that my son's family used as a book of remembrance following his sudden & unexpected passing away. Very high quality, beautifully presented & well protected for postage.

I've had a few journals from Earthworks over the years. The quality has been consistently excellent, the paper is phenomenal, and the leatherwork is fabulous. It feels like it'll survive the collapse of civilization!
