The packaging was really special when it arrived and it was even more beautiful than I expected. I'm so happy with it. I haven't had it for very long, but feels good to own such a gorgeous cover and notebook system to hold my thoughts and ideas. Highly recommend! I got the saffron A5 with cobalt blue. Great combo!
Personalized Leather Journal - Dark Brown with wrap closure
The most beautiful note book I have ever seen and felt. Packaged with such care. Thank you so much.
Very unique gift made with care and fantastic craftsmanship. So happy with the purchase
Beautifully made! It was the perfect gift
I absolutely love my trifold leather journal cover. The craftsmanship and quality is unmatched.
Very good quality. l own a Louise Carmen Journal from Paris and the finishing touches on it is not as polish as the forest journal.
I bought two A5 trifolds and the sizing is perfect — true A5, all my notebooks fit, and even when fully packed with multiple inserts, the trifold closes with no gap. The leather quality is amazing: thick but not too thick, smooth, and beautifully finished. The elastic is the perfect thickness and adjustable, not thin or flimsy like other brands. I also love that the closure grommet is placed on the edge, so there’s no knot in the middle of the back to feel while writing. Everything arrived securely packaged with the leather fully protected. Premium quality in every detail. I will rebuy without any hesitation.
Beautifully made, outstanding quality and great packaging! I will definitely be purchasing another trifold from this company.
