Limited Edition Distressed Italian Leather Journals with Deckled Paper
Filled with JournalShelf's signature deckled paper, these Distressed Leather Journals feature uneven, hand-cut edges. The paper is smooth and unlined, perfectly suited for writing, sketching and mounting photographs.

Each page is hand cut before being sown into the original binding. When bound together, the deckled edges rise and fall, creating a beautiful texture of alternating ridges and valleys.

JournalShelf's Distressed Italian Leather Journals also come filled with Classic Paper or Amalfi Paper.

Another distinguishing feature of these distressed Italian leather journals is the raised spine. This remarkable profile adds distinction to your bookshelf and a touch of old-world charm. The distressed leather covers are soft, thick and wonderful to handle.

Journal Care
Caring for your Italian leather journal is easy. To increase your journal's shine, using a cloth, rub a dab of leather oil, shoe polish, hand cream or moisturizer into the cover. Your Italian leather journal will preserve beautifully. Let it dry before stacking it with other books. Be careful not to stain your pages with the oil.

In some cases your Italian leather journal was hand treated and dyed. Some of the pigment used in the dyeing process may come off as you apply the oil. This does not harm the journal in any way. You will notice an increased luster to the Italian leather cover.
