Tan Avalon leather journal titled Sand Dollar

Archival quality, environmentally friendly Khadi cotton rag paper is made from 100% cotton rag fibers, and has an exquisite texture and tactile feel.

Each sheet bears the unmistakable imprint of the handmade process, with subtle variations in thickness adding to its charm, along with its unique and hand torn deckled edges.

The paper has a soft fibrous surface that’s perfect for a wide variety of artistic and writing mediums, including drawing, painting, mixed media, even fountain pen.

Khadi cotton is beloved by artists and enthusiasts of every level for its exceptional quality, versatility, and its immense beauty.

Covers are made from spectacular premium leathers in a wide variety of gorgeous colors.

Natural leather develops a rich patina over time and may darken, soften and develop variations in color.

Each scratch, scuff and crease tells a story, adding depth and personality to the leather’s surface.

When desired or needed, “Leather CPR” (easily purchased through Amazon) can be massaged into the leather to restore its moisture and erase scratches.
