All our journal covers are entirely handmade. The leather sides are hand-picked by our artisans and then stamped using an Argentine stamping method called “cincelado del sur.” The stamps used for this journal are a combination of hand-cut Argentine stamps and U.S.-cut stamps. The complex and original toolwork on our Aeneas Limited Edition journals are specifically designed to complement its wrap design. Our covers are then dyed and stained, and finally sewn with long-lasting waxed thread. Every Moleskine cover we sell comes equipped with a genuine Moleskine notebook.  You simply cannot find journal covers like this anywhere else in the world.  Check out our Etsy site to see what Aeneas Limited Edition journals are available!

For those not “in the loop,” Horvath and SojournerLeather are making available a genuine leather cover version of his hardcover novel, Fidelis. Sojourner’s leatherwork is the base design for the hardcover jacket, so it seemed logical to take that design and make it stand on its own as a real leather jacket. The genuine tooled leather journals (tooled and made exactly like all of Sojourner’s covers, a complete handmade process using the art form ‘cincelado’) will either be available for purchase, or as a gift when you purchase 10-15 copies of Fidelis (10 hard, 15 soft, I think).

When the leather covers are available, we’ll have a full write up on the whole project. This is really an orginal and never-before-done team up between an author and an artisan group, so we’re real excited about it. Stay posted!

In fact, limited editions will be released where you can buy the actual leather cover version of the novel, featuring the same designs and artisans as the hardcover book jacket. Check out the pics below of the finished book cover jacket and the actual leather book cover it was created from. For more info on the novel, follow up at Horvath’s site here.

When you buy one of our Sojourner Leatherwork Hand-tooled Journal Covers, it comes equipped with a genuine Moleskine notebook, the famous European-made notebooks that artists and writers have been using for decades.

Each journal is designed to fit your moleskine size of preference, designed by moleskine fanatics for moleskine fanatics. Choose from lined and plain (unlined, perfect for sketching or sketch journaling).

All available covers are at our Etsy store. And be sure to check our story at the Moleskinerie!
