Product Description

There is nothing quite like the look and feel of embellished books. Unique, tactile and so very pleasing to the eye. Over-the-top embellishment combined with the look of a journal that has been lovingly used for at least a century. Not only does this book have a magnetic wrap but added is a classic red ribbon marker and a memento pouch to store the treasures of a life well lived.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exquisite!, February 6, 2004

By	B.P. "tilley_traveler" (Wisconsin, United States) - See all my reviews

So what if it isn't real leather! That doesn't diminish its value at all! This is a mysterious, exotic and elegant looking journal book; one that will preserve your eloquent or personal writings like a royal treasure. The lovely gold embellishments have a slightly embossed texture. The book is nicely sized at 9 inches high by 7 inches wide (approx. 23 by 18 centimeters) with 144 vanilla cream pages. The paper is of thick acid-free archive quality, and printed with narrow margins and twenty-six delicate lines per page. It exhibits a bright red ribbon bookmark and a large expandable pocket at the back for stashing loose paper or extra bits & pieces. Also to be found inside at the center of the front cover page is a generously designated space for the owner to fill out who "This Book Belongs To" if they so wish. Plus the wrap around flap closes with a steadfast clap due to the subsurface magnetism embedded in the overlapping covers. You can even stow a pen or pencil neatly under the flap, between the paper edges and the cover at the right-hand side without much worry of it falling out. Beautiful as a planner or journal. Made in China.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classy and functional, January 21, 2003

By	A. SMITH (Plano, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This blank book really does have the appearance of an old leather book. The pages inside are acid-free, lined, and ivory with a thin red ribbon page marker. Also nice is the magnetic flap closure and a sewn-in pocket at the back of the book for notes, cards, letters, etc. Beautiful!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Journal, May 30, 2003

By	Johnnie N. Gray "sunsetgun78" (Newport News, VA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Very nice journal - a little larger than I like, but nice paper and feel - it could do without the satin bookmark. The closing flap is a great - I can add pictures and clippings without them falling out.
