ALCRAFT Leather Journal Vintage Bound Journal Handmade Antique Deckle Edge Paper Sketchbook Book Of Shadows For Men&Women- 7 X 5 Inches,200 Pages

It's my second leather diary from ALCRAFT. First one I received as a birthday gift from my friend, since then I am in love with leather diaries, as a leather journal can be cherished keepsake, the perfect abode to organise your thoughts. There are countless options, styles and personalised choices. The choice totally reflects your personality and mood as we have myriad varieties to match our taste. ❤ Advantages Leather is a high quality expensive material with many benefits including: • Classic appearance. • Sophisticated and royal look. • Luxurious feel. • Durable and long lasting. • Low maintenance. • Looks better with time. • Unique. • Can be used in any season without any worries. ❤ Pros 📙High end product: The first benefit of this journal is that it is made up of quality material which is sturdy yet natural; you can buy one that is customised to fit your needs and suit the money inside your pocket. 📙Colour: Light brown which is the natural colour of leather. 📙Handcrafted: The diary is hand crafted and has a leather cover which will last for many years. The outer cover is smooth like velvet which will keep the inner paper material intact and safe. The pages are hand stitched which gives an aesthetic and make in India feel. 📙Size of the diary: I am a student so, I always desired a small diary to write down the everyday schedule in order to prioritise and remember my important works like: • It can be used to writing down the notes • For calligraphy • For miniature paintings and sketching which look really cute for short hand report writing etc. • Smaller journals are more convenient for jotting down ideas on the go • Outdoor journaling. • As a travel companion. NOTE – THIS JOURNAL IS ALSO AVAILABLE IN BIGGER SIZES, YOU CAN CHECK THOSE AS PER YOUR NEED. 📙Number of pages: There are 200 pages counting both sides which are fair enough to serve the purpose of carrying it anywhere we want. 📙 Closure style: When it comes to leather journals the minute details matter too, including the closure. I found difficulty in writing on the left hand side of the diary I bought last time because of the C-type metal closure. So this time I gave a shot to the snap style closure to get a quick access to the diary. The snap style closure features an elegant secure tie-closure that adds an extra special touch to the journal. 📙 Paper quality: The paper quality is super-duper rich. The paper is handmade and yellowish in colour which gives an witch craft and vintage feel. The thickness of paper is good enough to avoid ghosting and bleeding. The GSM of paper has not been mentioned but it can retain the water colours, acrylic colours, sketch pens, oil pastels, fountain pens etc. without swelling the paper. ❤Cons 📙Natural leather smell is there which will vanish after sometime. 📙Size is small for painting and sketching conveniently but best for making schedules, to-do list, calligraphy, doodling, mini sketching etc. 📙Some people find it expensive but it is made up of pure leather so there is no scope of complaints in this area. 📙Appearance of fungus on outer cover can be seen during rainy season but this is the sign of pure leather and there is nothing to worry just wipe it with clean cloth. ❤ Caution The outer cover is smooth so protect it from sharp objects. ❤ Conclusion If you want to try something new then leather journal can be a great choice, because it provides a sense of luxury and permanence that other journals sought not. The look and feel of the product is exactly as shown in the picture. The feel of the diary is enchanting just like an excavated antique object. These journals are handmade from top quality material so you can be sure that it will last for years to come. Highly recommended 💯.

I was looking for this journal for a long time. I have always wanted to have a vintage looking journal. This is amazing and quality of sheets is outstanding. Thick and amazing color. Definitely worth the price.

Good for junk journaling. Very vintage style, ancient treasure. The colour of the pages is coffee stain and it is comforting for eyes while junk journaling. Strong stitches. Book cover is good but I would have loved the stained type as shown in the advertisement. The one I received is dark brown neat finish cover, I would have preferred a bit mote vintage style. Good papers and can be used for painting as well.

This is the great experience to use a handmade journal. The Seller alcraft is giving full satisfaction.

It's not so big and not so small but if you like small stuff you'll like it and if it's not the size you want then search about size of it so you won't be disappointed, overall it's good for its price and quality.. But like I said search about sizes so you won't have any problems..

Really loved this one. Seems like found a small book straight from movies or heaven...✨ It's totally worth it.

Overall good only the pages are orange shade not brown..
