Texture and Finish

Acadia - Smooth, slightly glossy finish
With a subtle glazed-like, smooth grain, our Acadia bonded leather has a great feel with a slightly glossy finish.

Camden - Slightly textured, matte finish
With a more pronounced and deeper texture, our Camden bonded leather has a great look and feel with a matte finish.

Freeport - Smooth, matte finish
A more subdued leather, our Freeport bonded leather sports a long-grain mixed with pockets of a shorter, more natural grain. Its matte finish enhances a smooth and muted texture that feels wonderful to the touch.

Floral - Highly textured, matte finish
Our Floral grain is a unique, highly textured, embossed bonded leather that comes in a swirling, botanical pattern. Black stamping is standard to complete the bold look. Personalization is not available on this grain, but we think you'll love it on its own.

Monhegan - Soft, slightly textured finish
A full-grain leather option that makes every cover unique, displaying the inherent variations of each hide. Monhegan has a natural, luxurious, and plush feel.

Tremont - Soft, slightly textured finish
A full-grain leather option that achieves the look of goatskin. The goat grain is both clearly visible and consistent. Tremont has a soft, thick, and supple feel.

Personalization

Personalizing your journal can help you to create a theme and enhance the memories you’ll be preserving in it. Gallery Leather offers several different color and text options that fit any style. By including the recipient’s initials or adding a message to a journal, you create a meaningful gift that will be cherished for years to come.

caring for your leather

Caring for Your Leather

Leather is a beautiful, durable material when cared for properly. Our bonded leather is best cared for through normal handling. Your hands provide the natural oils that nourish most leather. Our bonded leather is tanned specifically with special oils that replace the need to apply any creams or waxes. For normal dirt and spills, use a soft washcloth dampened with lukewarm water and some sort of mild detergent. Once clean, dry your leather with a clean towel. Do not use alcohol, cleaning solvents, oils, varnishes, or polishes. Avoid extreme temperatures.

    Excellent, high quality journal. The leather is exceptional. Excellent binding, on it. Book will not lay flat open but that's because the binding is so good

    Leather Journal (Navy Color) 5 people found this helpful
    I have over a decade collection worth of diary entries throughout my young adult life. Don’t know where my life would be without them. People see a therapist to help them make sense of their lives, but I think writing in a journal can be equally beneficial. Even billionaires journal their thoughts, feelings, goals and most internal revelations. For me previous journals did not last. The backings would fall apart, the pages would get stained and the books were stiff so carrying them around in my briefcase was challenging. When I discovered this product, I like the feel, size and color options. The leather is luxurious, and the pages are rich. I’ve already finished one journal and purchased another and I see no damages or issues. The quality is beyond five star and feels world-class. Should I say also there are competitors who try to mirror this company’s product and charge double to triple. I paid $36 for the Journal, which wasn’t cheap considering the last one was just under $30. But it lasts a year and it’s more important for me to have something that will survive. The lines are right and the spacing is right and everything about it is just functional.

    I've been using these journals for years when I bought up all the inventory at Borders before they closed. Glad to discover they are still being made and available on line and the different color choices are very nice. Purple and green are new cover colors for me and are very nice. Well constructed and take ink very well and around 190 pages (front & back) you get your money's worth!
