Our Top 5 Products for 2014 (so far!)

July 04, 2014 / Belinda Dart

It's hard to believe that we are already half way through 2014. Time flies...

Today we are counting down our top 5 products of the year to date as chosen by our customers!

5. Rustic Leather Wrap Journal

Our Rustic Leather Wrap Journal has been a firm favourite since we started crafting them a number of years ago. The handmade paper with a rustic deckled edge and soft leather cover is certainly appealing to writers and artists alike. The leather straps neatly wrap and tie around the journal.

4. Half Leather Portrait Album in Golden Flower Design

What's not to love about this gorgeous photo album? Bound in sleek black leather with classic raised bands on the spine and finished with hand decorative tooling. It has 30 black dry mount pages with interleaving tissue. The cover design is a delightful floral Japanese Washi paper with shimmering metallic highlights. It has been immensely popular this wedding season as a personalised gift for the bride and groom, with their names and the wedding date embossed along the spine.

3. Boxed Monogrammed Stationery Set and Wax Seal

We have 2 of our popular products in equal third position and coincidentally they are both not books! The Boxed Monogrammed Stationery set is a new addition to our shelves for 2014, while the Wax Seal has been a customer favourite for a few years now! Both stunning and unique products, great as a special gift for someone who loves to put pen to paper. Obviously you get to choose the letter!

Wax seals available as single letter or decorative element

2. Upcycled Journals

Everything old is new again! Our upcycled journals feature vintage covers salvaged from books beyond repair. Each one is individual so they come in a huge range of sizes and designs. They are teamed with a contrasting book cloth spine and filled with cream hand sewn pages. They make a great daily journal or sketchbook with the added benefit of looking totally awesome on the bookshelf or coffee table.

1. Full Leather Signature Books & Journals

For our number 1 selling product we have yet another tie! Equally popular so far this year are our full leather journals and full leather signature books. Leather is timeless and elegant, which perfectly describes both of these books. Handcrafted in luxurious leather, the range of colour options makes it easy to match to the occasion or the individual. Both products have classic raised bands on the spine and are finished with matching printed endpapers and our signature bookplate inside the front cover.

Printed Decorative End Papers on Full Leather Signature Book

One great benefit of choosing a full leather bound product, is that you are have a wider range of options when it comes to personalising it with embossing. You can opt for subtlety with initials in the corner, or fill the cover with a quote or title of your choice. Once again, weddings have been a primary purpose for these elegant books. The signature books are fabulous as a guest book for weddings, but equally suit any milestone birthday or other occasions such as memorials. Beautifully presented in our black gift box, they can be kept and treasured for years to come.
