Leather
I use Italian vegetable tanned leather from the Genuine Italian Vegetable Tanned Leather Consortium for most of my journals and leather goods. This is the same stuff the best leather makers use, and for good reason. Every hide is a little different, so you might notice subtle variations in colour, small natural marks, or unique grain patterns. That's not a flaw, that's the leather. With daily use it softens, deepens in tone, and develops a patina that's entirely your own.
From time-to-time, I use chrome tanned leather, as part of limited edition journals. Please read the product listing for more specifics.
Leather Care
Wipe gently with a clean, dry cloth. If you'd like, apply a touch of leather balm, let it absorb and lightly buff. Avoid contact with water, harsh cleaners and heat. If it gets wet, blot and let it air dry naturally.
Eyelet Care
I use brass eyelets with a colored finish, which may naturally patina with time and touch. If you would like to brighten your hardware, gently polish with a cotton swab and a brass cleaner, taking care to avoid contact with the leather.
