Handcrafted in Los Angeles from premium Italian full-grain vegetable-tanned leather, each piece is made slowly and deliberately, with texture, patina, and time in mind. Every journal is meant to become an artifact — softening at the edges, darkening with the oils of your hands, evolving as you evolve. No two will ever age alike.

About the Maker
Founded by Kristen Bromiley, this studio traces its roots back to a small Canadian office-supply store where she spent five formative years in high school. What looked like an ordinary retail job became the beginning of a lifelong fascination with paper, tools, and beautifully made objects.
Materials That Endure
Leather that deepens, softens, and remembers you. We source our materials from artisans from around the world.
Creating is a way of living, and well-made objects help us remember who we are.
