Made from
Natural leather journal with recycled unbleached cotton paper pages made from left over rags from the massive garment industry in India.
All the products in this range are handmade by a small family business in Rajasthan, India.
We are fortunate enough to visit them every year, having worked with them for many years following Fair Trade guidelines.
They are made in a small workshop in Rajasthan, India by skilled crafts people using a mixture of traditional and contemporary methods.
The pages are created from khadda paper (also known as kaddi or khaddi). This sustainable material is crafted by hand from recycled cotton, salvaged from the huge waste of the Indian garment industry. Only unbleached cotton is used, ensuring the paper is acid-free.
We don't recommend using a fountain pen with this type of handmade paper.
