Brown Distressed Leather Journal

This handmade journal contains approximately 125 pages of plain, unlined khadda paper. With a leather strap to keep it secure, it’s waiting to be filled with all your best ideas. The perfect gift for a budding author, recipe-writer, note-taker, or diary-keeper. Stylish and unique they also make a difference to the communities who make them, the recycled cotton paper is made by a charity that promotes women's development in rural areas of Rajasthan, India. Expertly crafted using both contemporary and traditional methods, each one is bound by hand and ready to withstand any knocks and bumps on their journeys with you. The leather used for the cover is a by-product of the meat industry in India and is tanned using only natural dyes. Protected with natural oils, it will soften and age beautifully. The pages are created from khadda paper (also known as kaddi or khaddi). This sustainable material is crafted by hand from recycled cotton, salvaged from the huge waste of the Indian garment industry. Only unbleached cotton is used, ensuring the paper is acid-free. Lightly textured and luxuriously thick, it feels beautiful to write, draw, or paint on. While it’s perfect for ball-point pens, gel pens, or watercolours, we wouldn’t recommend it for use with fountain pens. Due to the handmade nature of our products each one is unique, but loveliness comes as standard.
