Bench-crafted one at a time, the leather journal is crafted from quality cowhide custom tanned and deeply embossed with a design patterned after Van Gogh's 'Fishing Boats on the Beach at Saintes-Marie'. The journal is accented with a solid pewter button styled after a sand dollar, which an attached rawhide cord loops around to fasten the journal. Within the brown leather cover is a replaceable 5.5" x 8.5" 208-page hard-cover blank book of heavy bond acid-free pages, perfect for recording sketches, notes, dreams, travels, poetry, musings or your personal works of literature. Once the pages are full, the journal may be refilled with a new blank book, allowing a lifetime of use (additional blank books available separately below). Leather portions are tanned and hand-tooled in the USA. Pewter button is individually designed and cast in the USA.
