CUERO Vintage Leather Journal

This was a Christmas present for someone crafty and artistic, and the journal was a hit. It’s beautiful in person and is real leather. I was extremely happy with this purchase for the price and the quality.

Love this! I have a collection of these kind of leather bound books, and I am very specific about them. When I opened this one, I was delighted to see that it is very much up to my standards for my leather books, and I love it. Great find!

This is an amazing gift for a writer. The paper is made to look hundreds of years old which adds to the vintage feel. The leather wrap around strap also adds to the look.

Great gift for our Harry Potter lover. She loved the rustic look and the quality was perfect

It came EXACTLY as pictured. Better quality than I even expected. I love it. My son will be so happy when he opens it on Christmas.

There is a lot to like/love about this journal. Size4×6 is one of my favorite sizes for traveling with and creating on the go. I am an artist and I just wanted something I could do daily exercises in. It's not really meant for creating masterpieces. I am mainly a mixed media artist. So far I have used: pen/ink, watercolor, water soluble pencils and colored pencil. The paper seems almost like fabric. I am not sure its exact content, but definitely a large percentage of cotton. Ok my likes and dislikes: love the vintage look and textured pages. The handmade paper is both a pro & con. Neat textures, but not uniform throughout. Some pages have "bleach spots", others have darker fibers that shine through the page( see the page with the sun/moon) there are a couple of fibers that shown through the moon. Pages are not very forgiving with use of an eraser. I made some guidelines for my quotes and went to erase and it made white lines in the paper( Ultimately just left the guidelines). Pro-- I purposely used the eraser to make "sunbeams" around the sun. On the sun my metalic acrylic ink showed up well, but I have a gold pen that typically shows up super shiny on other papers, but doesn't with this paper( see the stars. I ultimately used white to create my stars). I thought maybe I could go over it and build up the ink, but it didn't work. Even though the paper is really thick, the paper is extremely fragile when trying to layer or erase. On the sun I used watercolor and I also used a fluid acrylic ink. I barely had some bleed through on the previous page (see the mandala page-- a couple of red spots came through). There is absolutely no bleeding with normal pens. I used multiple pen sizes and some brush pens with the black ink. There's also not any "spreading" of the ink particularly on my lettering. Other than my issue with my gold pen, I must say I am really happy so far. I hope you find this info helpful.

Genuine leather with a solid feel. I really enjoy the pages and the write ability. Lock is so cute.

Beautiful and a fantastic gift to give to someone eclectic

I bought this as a present and will now probably order again for myself.

This journal came as an exact same replica of the one shown in the picture. It's a very good journal for those looking for handmade journals. I bought a few on Amazon already and this is one of my favorites. Yes, it's already looking worn-out, and yes, it may not test the time as well as more conventional journals. But it has a lot of soul in it. I personally will use it as a Dungeons & Dragons item during an upcoming session.

Product matches the description, I love the parchment like paper. Looks and feels awesome at a good price, what more can you ask for.
