"A genuine leather notebook will stay with you for years – with every page you fill, it becomes a little more your own."

Craftsmanship you can feel

Our leather notebooks are hand-bound – the visible cross-stitch on the spine makes every single copy unique. Inside, you will find handmade recycled paper made from cotton scraps (cotton rag): unlined, with a rough, natural texture, wonderful for ink, pencil, and sketches. Each cover features a deeply and plastically embossed motif – each with its own meaning.

The 5 motifs and their meanings

Tree of Life – A symbol of growth, connection, and being rooted in life. A beautiful companion for anyone who wants to reflect and grow.

Om – The primal sound, arguably the best-known spiritual symbol of all. Stands for unity and inner peace – ideal for a meditation or mindfulness journal.

Buddha – A symbol of clarity, serenity, and the journey inward. Fits anyone looking to gather their thoughts and find tranquility.

Elephant – Across Asia, a symbol of wisdom, luck, and loyalty. A companion that carries you safely through life.

Ganesha – The remover of obstacles, bringer of luck and wisdom. The perfect gift for any new beginning, be it a new job, a move, or starting your studies.

Available in 4 to 6 sizes

From the small waistcoat-pocket version (approx. 8 × 10.5 cm) to the large travel or sketchbook (up to 18 × 25.5 cm) – each motif is available in several sizes, starting from CHF 19.95. This way, you will find the right format for everyday notes, as a travel journal, or as a thoughtful gift.
