I bound this antique-style journal with hand-dyed, brownish Italian leather. The symbols engraved on the center plates are 'Great Architect', which signifies a concept of a supreme deity who designed and created the universe with purpose and wisdom.
I bound this journal with high-quality leather and filled it with 95 gr light cream-colored blank paper, which is ideal not only for fountain pens (it doesn’t bleed through) but also for graphite and sketching. The pages are hand-sewn. I added gold decorations using 24K gold. The edges are marbled, and the marbled endpapers are unique, as I personally made and selected the best one for this journal.
All processes are done by hand, in accordance with tradition and respect for the environment. Although it takes a lot of time, this journal is bound with love and care, making each one a unique piece.
Please note that this journal is not a Moleskine that bends back on itself. This journal has a structure: it is sewn on three cords and has a rounded and hammered back. This journal opens smoothly and is easy to write in. It is built to last and will protect your words for years to come.
- Size: about 18(width)×13.7(length) cm (about 7 × 5.4 inches.)
- About 376 pages (= about 188 sheets)
You’re welcome to personalize the journal with an engraved title or initials on the spine. After your order, I’ll contact you regarding personalization.
