A new take on note taking...

All of the benefits of a classic leather pocket journal, but without the "rustic" that usually accompanies it.

Made from a beautiful 5oz Italian leather that's sturdy enough to stand on it's own without layering, and so finely tanned, both sides can be appreciated equally.

Its ergonomic shape fits nicely in the palm and can easily slip into pockets and bags of any size.

The smooth void space of the inner cover and use of natural retention in lieu of a latch closure help to keep the lines clean and remove any hesitation or distraction from the creative moment.

It also gets better with time, as it softens and takes on the scars and characteristics of its owner's lifestyle.

Key Features:

• Cut almost entirely from a single piece of Firm, Italian leather
  
• Ages incredibly well and made to soften, and close easier with use
• Entirely hand cut (no machines or dies) 
• Hand-sewn with durable, Japanese thread (Vinymo MBT Japan)
• Includes four 100% cotton Obsidian Note books
• Perfectly pocketable, 3.6in x 3.6in square shape
• Italian vegetable tan leather (MPG Industria Conciaria)
• Tight grained leather with a rich black color and a smooth texture
• Absolutely no distracting branding on the leather

**This is a natural product that lived a life. dimples, striations, and scaring, give unique qualities and character to each piece. I do my best to balance this with a more streamlined, modern aesthetic.
