Variations in color and texture of the leather are part of the unique quality and aesthetic of this handcrafted journal.

Personalize your journal by adding an embossed name or phrase for only $12.00 per line. You can personalize your book with blind embossing on one or two lines, up to 20 characters and spaces each. To choose this option, fill in your personalization information above.

Your inscription will be positioned in the lower-right corner of the book. The font we use is Garamond, and the font size will vary depending on the number of characters you request.

Blind embossing uses heat to "brand" the letters into the leather. It is a subtle look where the letters are pressed into the leather. Your inscription will be pressed in and darker than the surrounding leather.

PLEASE NOTE: When choosing personalization, allow one extra day. Personalized albums may not be returned.
