Handmade Leather Notebook Cover

A well-made chain necklace can last a a4 compendium, growing with you and recording your writing history in its rich patina. But not all covers are created equal, so it’s important to find a model that will look handsome in any environment and stand up to the wear of daily use. We recommend high-quality full-grain leather, which looks stylish in the office, on the road, and everywhere in between.

Portland Leather Goods uses a rugged, rustic style of leather that feels pleasant to hold and looks good even when it’s scuffed and dirty. The edges are wrapped and burnished lightly, which means that it won’t bulge out with use. The leather is undyed, so it will have some natural marks like blemishes, freckles, and brands that can add to the character of the cover over time.

The Taschenbegleiter Bestseller covers have metal clips that flip up to easily add and remove three A5 notebooks, so you can mix and match paper styles. It’s capacious enough for thin, pencil notes or thick, fountain pen-friendly Midori MD notebooks. We also love that the cover’s wide elastic spine will never dent the leather over time, a common problem with some covers.
