culatta open seam journal

£125.00
description

the third iteration of our leather journal has been meticulously hand cut and sewn from a butter soft full grain washed and barrel tumbled 1.2mm vegetable tanned culatta with a rotten corpse matte black finish. the leather offers a sporadic fiber structure with an array of textures and scarring which are highlighted throughout the piece.

culatta is a special cut combined of the rear just above the cordovan, the belly middles and the hind shanks, offering a dense structure, tight grain and medium to firm temper. 

vegetable tanning is a traditional method of treating the hide using natural extracts such as tree bark, for a truly artisanal finish.

a liquid .925 sterling silver has been applied to the interior for a contrasting pearlescent finish.

crafted from multiple panels with an open seam construction and hammered flat seams in a contrasting 0.65mm hand waxed Japanese linen thread over an 8 hour period without the use of machines. the journal also features a hand forged iron nail closure and a writing utensil pocket to the rear cover.

each journal features 80 leather bound hand sewn pages of handmade khadi paper crafted from 100% long fibered cotton rag. each page is 150gsm, acid free, with a medium surface and a deckle edge. the journals are suitable for watercolour and all painting, drawing and writing media.

each piece comes in a hand made leather package.

custom leathers, sizes and finishes are available upon request.

care & maintenance

item care:

- detergents should not be used to remove stains.
- do keep away from direct sunlight to preserve colour

applying protective cream:
- apply a thin coat of the cream on a soft and clean cotton cloth
- spread it evenly in a circular motion over the surface of the leather
- if the leather is extremely dry – repeat the process up to two times within four hours
- the protective cream provides a shine and also gently darkens the leather
- do not apply the cream directly on the leather
