Exquisitely presented in a top quality Italian handmade gift box, this prestigious and luxurious Chianti leather Journal is meticulously handmade in Florence using only the most exquisite and immaculate skins, known as full-grain leather hides. This matchless leather is painstakingly tanned by Italian leather craftsmen using the world’s most environmentally friendly tanning method which utilizes vegetable dyes. This pioneering process can only be used on the finest hides as it does not disguise flaws but instead illuminates the leather’s natural lustrous grain. Each piece is exclusively hand-tooled to create an arched spine with embossed rigid ribbing. This traditional leather Journal will age beautifully over time. The interior contains creamy, sumptuous leaves of high-quality Italian acid-free Plain writing paper which is fountain pen friendly and perfect for writing down all of your thoughts and ideas.
