The Traveler's Leather Journal is the perfect place to jot down random thoughts, goals, poetry, epiphanies, or even as a journal to record the memories of life's little adventures.
Each one of the Traveler's Leather Journals is a masterpiece of fine leather and craftsmanship! The paper size is 6.5" x 7" and assembled with 160 rough cut pages that are carefully hand-sewn into top grain cowhide leather.
As an artisan-crafted product, this item is made from raw top-grain cowhide, which has remained untouched before tanning. Any veins, scaring from wounds the animal sustained from other animals, or scratches from rubbing up against rocks, barbed wire, trees, or buildings will remain on the finished product. This is in contrast to the normal massed produced leather products common in commercial stores where there has been much processing to make the final product as smooth and unflawed as possible. So go ahead, handle it. Don't be afraid of a scuff. Lick your finger. Rub it off. The oils from your skin shape the patina over time. To keep it looking great, occasionally apply some leather conditioner and keep it out of the direct sunlight for long periods of time.
The paper used is a thick-weight hand-torn deckled edge paper. In an effort to reduce their carbon footprint, Rustico uses either post consumer recycled paper or a cotton rag blended paper, both of which are excellent for all types of writing or drawing.
