This item is a hand tooled leather bound blank book with richly antiqued shades of red and brown contrasting with the brass of the rivets and the snap. The entire book is and ornately tooled in a medieval manner. 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. 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. My leatherwork is oftentimes stream of consciousness, this is how this one turned out! Custom made items with this type of theme are available and can be done to order with graphic designs, initials and the like.
Gene's Leather Stuff
Gene's Leather Stuff is a one-man leathercrafting operation centered around instrument straps, harmonica cases and leather books of various sorts.
I requested a custom product and it was made and sent to me within the requested time. It looks great and shipping was fast. Thanks
I consider myself an artistic kind of guy and Gene knocked my project (an amazing harmonica case) out of the park! It was just was I was I was looking for and then some. I have already spoke to him about my next project for him. He also has some really cool items in his gallery that blow my mind.
I worked with Gene to create a custom leather journal cover for my husband. He took my vision and worked with me to make sure we could create something very unique with my husband's intricate logo. My husband loved it! The only bummer was that even though Gene paid for expedited shipping, it came a couple days after my husband's birthday. He was patient and the wait was worth it.
