Heart Buffalo Leather Wraparound Journal

This thick journal is for serious writers, note-takers, or recipe-creators.

With pages of dyed, unlined, deckled edge khadda paper made to look old, the wrapped leather cover will keep all your musings extra secure.

The cover features an embossed heart featuring leaves and flowers which adds a unique touch to your journal.

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 buffalo 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.

Our journals can be used in many ways, here are a few ideas:• Using it for journaling.• Letting your creativity flow by scrapbooking/painting.• Keeping organised by creating your own bullet journal, with habit trackers and your monthly calendar.• Making a gratitude/reflective diary, perfect for writing affirmations, your goals, and intentions for the future.• Taking a travel journal on all your adventures, making it an excellent companion for solo travellers.• Logging your dreams and sleep patterns to gain a deeper understanding of your inner self.

Due to the nature of the material and handmade quality of this product, each journal is unique and comes with its own set of beautiful creases, bumps and marks that develop with age into something truly special.
