Hand Tooled Leather Journal With A Reptilian Attitude

This item is a hand tooled leather bound blank book that will ward off the evil eye!! Just kidding! Measuring 4-1/2" by 6" and a little over an inch thick, it has 120 4-1/4" by 5-1/2" leaves (240 pages) of 20 lb. ivory bond paper. This is an ideal book to use as a journal, a book of shadows, diary, or whatever else you can think of. The glowing eye incorporated into the cover gives a reptilian feel. The overall tone of the dyed leather as well as the handtooling, binding and finishing of the leather - especially gold trim looking handworn from being handled for ages conveys an impression of great antiquity. Binding is done with lacing with the lace binding the pages forming a bookmark. The pages do not look machine cut and convey craftsmanship of a pre-industrial era. If you are looking for an exquisite handcrafted item for a gift or for yourself, you have found one in this blank book. This item can be custom made to your wishes: initials, name, design theme, whatever.
