Leather Journal Writing Notebook, Vintage Handmade Bound Notepad for Men Women - Write in Plain Thick Paper, 7x5 Inch Small Blank Pages, MOONSTER® Drawing Sketchbook, Travel Diary, Unlined Note Book

3/18/19: Again edited and what customer service! Added the 8x6 again without the pen. I'm ordering two more today. I cannot say enough about the quality and how beautiful these are. (Note: I used Oakwood Leather Conditioner on it - preserves and protects the leather. It's absolutely gorgeous. I love that each one is unique as well. 3/2/19: I'm docking this one star. I have bought two of these. I'm gauging how often I write / the size of my handwriting and by the looks of it, it will last me 5 months. I also wanted to purchase one for a gift so I came back to purchase 2 more. SO disappointed. No longer is the 8 x 6 available on its own. One must purchase a pen for about $10 more. No, thank you! I'll be looking elsewhere. Here's my original review. Same product - but also, the price fluctuates so often (seller informed me daily metrics dictate what the price is / should be. The first one I purchased was $29, next day, it was $32). Here's my original review. I had high hopes for this. And it surpassed my imagination. The feel of it is extraordinarily inviting to open and begin writing - not to mention the rich leather aroma adding to that invitation. The quality is outstanding. I journal every day, so tend to go through a lot of pages. It is difficult to find thick, writable journals, that do not interfere with the thought process (logos, thickness, line, type of paper, etc.). And the cotton paper is superb. This is the first journal that I found myself writing more carefully... as if I entered a much more intimate space. I automatically slow down before writing. I've never this experienced with other journals. I know this sounds over the top and very dramatic. But nothing I've mentioned is hyperbolic. PS Great Customer Service: I thought I had purchased two (expecting one to be a gift). I'd made an error - I had only ordered one. At the time, there was a discount for purchasing two at one time. I immediately wrote the Seller who replied and honored the discount after I placed the second order. And now that I've received the second, I'm tempted to keep it.....

I was excited to finally get a rustic leather journal like this. This is the real deal, folks. Genuine leather. Smells like leather, distresses like leather, the works. I wanted to make this journal special, so I created a first-page watercolor to help me feel creatively inspired each time I open it. As you can see from the pics, no bleed-through on the other side of the page, even though the water left a small dimple in the next few pages. Not a deal-breaker for me by any means, though. Very high-quality paper made from cotton with plenty of pages to write on. You can see the fibers when you hold the pages up to the light. I haven't had a chance to write in it just yet, but I'll be doing a pen-test page soon. I'm curious to see the results. I purchased the 7" x 5" and I'm pleased I did. It's just the right size for portability yet with plenty of writing room. There's even enough space to insert a pen in the side when it's closed. The strap encloser is nice and wide, unlike the stringy ones I've seen on similar journals here on Amazon. There are five separate page sections, great for sectioning out what you want to use the notebook for (dream journaling, writing, blogging, sketching, etc.). Nicely bound from the side and the bindings definitely look secure. A handmade masterpiece, in my opinion. This is the type of notebook I'd use for writing an entire first draft of a novel in. Note: These are NOT removable/refillable pages. But with the quality of this journal, it's definitely worth getting another once I've finished this one. I may even try the larger 8" x 6" size next. The only thing I can think of that I would change is the addition of a ribbon—or better yet, leather—bookmark, but I'm curious to see if I can somehow incorporate the strap for a bookmark. Once I get this journal good and broken in, I plan on updating this review, but I don't see my thoughts about it changing from what I've seen so far.

This is absolutely the best journal I have ever owned! The workmanship is 5 star. I do not know the weight of the paper. It is not really heavy. If you are used to working on hot press or cold press paper, you will like this. I do not know how much water it will take as I used very little for my tiny watercolor sketch. As Indian handmade paper goes, this is nicer for me. If you like rough paper, this might be too smooth for you. If you can read my writing, you can see the sharpie was fine. The micron I used at the bottom did not bleed but it did show through. For insurance against bleed through, I cut a piece of yupo paper to put underneath the painting, writing page. I did give 5 stars for quality. I did not want to take off one star for a tiny little dislike I had. I did not like that a person had to buy the pen and box to get a journal with a little pen tab sewn in. That was not nice. I think both the gift box one and the other should both come with the sewn in tab for the pen. Actually, from a business standpoint, the tab, although adding a little cost would streamline the overall process since the journals would not have to be either produced in different areas, or separated initially. In other words, it takes time to check whether the journal is going to be one with or without a pen. Also, the pen could be sold separately. I would also like to see a model with a little pocket in the back since artists and people in general collect items on trips that they would like to keep with the journal. Obviously, that would be a more expensive item. Lastly I would like to say, I love that this company donates some proceeds to help African children. What a wonderful way for us to feel good while being extravagant!

È davvero un bellissimo quaderno. L’esterno è in cuoio anticato, e la chiusura è assicurata dal laccetto che gira una volta e mezza intorno alle copertine. Nel mio non si sente odore di cuoio, poiché non sono un esperto non attribuisco un giudizio sulla qualità dello stesso.. tuttavia visivamente ha un enorme fascino e fa figura. Le pagine interne sono porose, credo derivate dal cotone: per me che adoro scrivere con la mia stilografica è una manna. Consiglio sinceramente l’acquisto di questo oggetto. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo, ben realizzato, fascinoso, originale, e sembra provenire da un’altra epoca. Servizio Amazon perfetto.
