A magnetic closure

Quick response is made easier by the presence of a magnetic closure that is easy to open and close when it comes time to put away.

Quality materials and design

Made from semi-rigid natural leather, obtained through an ecological process using vegetable tannins. The leather is then treated with beeswax and natural oils, providing a patinated and durable finish. Each notebook is carefully hand-sewn using the baseball stitch technique, ensuring robustness and artisanal aesthetics.
