Announcement
LEATHER PHOTO ALBUMS, JOURNALS AND SCRAPBOOKS
All the items I make are entirely done by hand and decorated with one of my images. I start with top quality leather from north Spain. I buy same leather that is sold to Louis Vuitton for his bag production. The leather is vegetable tanned unlike most items sold which are made with chromium tanned industrial leather. I further prepare the pieces and screen leather inks onto the surface. The inks are partially absorbed by the leather creating permanent bond. I hand burn and shade the images with maps. The albums and journals make unique gifts, souvenirs of your traveles or beautiful decoration for home or office. The leather becomes more beautiful with passage of time.
Colors: Since I make each item to order the color might vary from the pictures. It depends on how the inks mix and how they react with leather.
Shipping: I make each item to order and it takes a few days. I go to the post office once a week. Estimated delivery time is about two weeks but it depends on the postal service and customs and occasionally there are delays and it might take a month or so to arrive.
Returns: I make all items to order and do not accept returns.

1 out of 5 starsThis was too tiny to be any kind of scrapbook and the price was Unjustifiable. There was not clear disclosure about the size. Very very big waste of my money.

The size is clearly stated in the description, but one needs to read it to find out

1 out of 5 starsI was really looking forward to receiving this album, however, when it arrived I was very disappointed. The colors were not vibrant like the picture in the listing. They were faded looking and the red in the picture wasnt red it was pink. There was some green dye from the trees that bled onto the blue sky. I contacted the seller who was very nice. He explained that he cannot control how the ink absorbs into the leather and that there was a disclaimer in the listing. How disappointing!

All the items are made to order. The image is on leather which is natural material and there is no uniformity. The final results depends on how the inks mix and how they react with leather. It is all mentioned in the shop announcement and I assume when somebody buys one of my creations they accept these conditions.

4 out of 5 starsAlthough it is smaller than I thought it would be, the albumn is beautiful. It reminds me of the rich history of Tahoe. The cover looks like the old pictures we saw of wealthy San Francisco families enjoying the lake not long after it was discovered. I was married there this summer and fell in love! Thank you!

5 out of 5 starsThe workmanship on this album was excellent and was a big hit as a Christmas present. I liked it so much I also ordered the Japan album! Thankfully both arrived in time for Christmas as promised.
