Product description
A stunning handmade, Fair Trade and eco-friendly leather covered photo album. The leather is embossed and has been emblazoned with a semi-precious stone.
Ideal for anyone who has a passion for photos, sketching, painting or just doodling.
These photo albums have 30 pages, each interleaved with tissue paper, and can hold up to 240 standard 6x4 inch photos; they are made with khadda paper, made from recycled cotton (also known as kaddi or khaddi) that has been left over from the massive garment industry in India.
They are handmade and don’t contain any chemicals as we only use unbleached cotton.
The paper is made by a charity in rural Rajasthan that promotes women’s education and their social standing in the rural villages.
This leather photo album is available simply embossed or, for a more intrepid look it can be stitched around the outside.
Variations
Add gift wrapping to your order, and we’ll wrap your gift in our highly sustainable Lokta paper. Choose from 3 festive colours, each with a handprinted metallic gold pattern, and tied in sustainable jute string. The thick, luxurious texture of the handmade paper makes it easy to reuse many times.
The semi precious stones that have been stitched onto these leather albums have been handpicked by us for quality and size and may differ from the image shown due to the natural differences in Tiger’s Eye, Lapis, Labradorite and Black Onyx.
Due to its handmade nature each one is unique but loveliness comes as standard making it an ideal birthday, Mother's & Father's Day, new job, home, baby, graduation and teacher, thank you, just because, engagement, wedding, anniversary or Christmas gift!
Dimensions
Made from
The leather has been tanned by our suppliers and the albums have been crafted using a mixture of love, contemporary and traditional skills. The embossing has been expertly created using small individual handmade tools making each album unique.
We don't recommend using fountain pen with this type of handmade paper.
The pages have been bound by hand so they are strong and perfect for travelling. And these beautiful books don’t have to be used as a photo album, they’re also perfect to use as a scrap book or art book, doodle book or diary, and the paper is great for water-colour painting. To use it as a photo album, photos can be added using photo corners, spray mount or just glue.
Due to the fact that these products are individual, rustic and handmade, the colour and designs may slightly vary but loveliness comes as standard.
