Bespoke A5 Cork Vegan Journal / Sketchbook / Scrapbook: choose your colour

£89.00 GBP

| /

Finally, a quality journal, sketchbook or scrapbook for people who don't want leather!

Purchase this item if you'd like to choose your own colours, You can also choose from a journal, a sketchbook or a scrapbook. 

What's the difference?

The sketchbook has 192 pages of 140gsm recycled cartridge paper, sized for all wet and dry media including writing, sketching and painting.

The journal has 192 pages of finest quality 115gsm Superfine Smooth paper, particularly suited to fountain pens. It is manufactured by windpower.

The scrapbook has 128 pages of 220gsm cartridge paper with spacers to accommodate inclusions such as photographs.

Sustainable style

Whichever option you choose, your book will be bound by hand in a simple exposed spine style that lends attractive detail, but also allows you use every centimetre of each page. It's a softcover, flexible style that lets the pages stay open for easy use. The spacing of the stitching will be slightly wider than shown in these images.

If you're opting for a memory book, I recommend using glue dots, photo corners or washi tape for this. Pages are large enough for standard postcard size and photos up to a maximum of 7 x 5 inches. (For larger inclusions, a leather Memory Book is preferable.)

Cork textile is sustainable and naturally vegan. It's soft and warm to the touch, yet robust and water resistant. It's a good choice if you prefer non-leather, sustainable personal items.

Please note

Please note that cork may fray slightly along cut edges; I've done everything to minimise this but I wanted to make you aware. It hasn't proven to be a problem for the  people who have ordered Cork Sketchbooks from me, but to get in touch if you want to ask about this aspect, or indeed anything else.
