Looking for a color not shown in our collection?
Through our Atelier Color Service, we can source specialty leathers from select American and Italian tanneries. Whether you're searching for the perfect shade of olive, aqua, blush, or something entirely unique, we'll work with you to create a journal that feels distinctly yours.
Additional sourcing fees and lead times apply.
As with all handcrafted goods, subtle variations in leather, embossing, finishing, and construction are part of the process and contribute to the individuality of each journal. No two pieces will ever be exactly alike—and we believe that's what makes them special.

Care
Keep dry:
Light moisture is fine, but avoid soaking. If exposed to water, gently pat dry and allow it to air dry naturally.
Condition occasionally:
Use a small amount of leather balm to maintain suppleness and prevent dryness. A little goes a long way.
Avoid prolonged sun exposure:
Sunlight will deepen the color over time — beautiful, but best in moderation.
Handle with intention:
Oils from your hands will naturally condition the leather. Over time, it will become uniquely yours.
Expect change:
This leather is not meant to stay pristine. It is meant to age, to mark, to reflect a life well documented.
shipping/fulfillment
Archive Collection Notebooks are fulfilled in 1-3 business days.
Our custom notebooks are made slowly, not mass produced.
Please allow up to 2 weeks for production before shipment.
Each journal is crafted to order using vegetable-tanned leather sourced from select tanneries in Italy and the United States. Because many leathers are sourced specifically for your order, production time allows us to carefully prepare, assemble, and finish your piece by hand.
Shipping speed selected at checkout refers to transit time once your package has shipped.
The Leather
We intentionally select full-grain vegetable-tanned leathers that retain the natural character of the hide. As a result, markings such as healed scars, grain variations, wrinkles, and other features from the tannery may be visible and will vary from piece to piece.
These characteristics are a hallmark of authentic leather and should not be considered flaws. Rather, they are part of what makes each journal entirely unique—a one-of-one piece that cannot be exactly replicated.
