Personal sized Janet Leather (#104) Van Der Spek Organiser

For a previous post about this and how I discovered the leather, please click here.

I cannot say how much I love this binder. It is so rich and textured and sturdy. Kind of like Mulberry Darwin mated with Gillio epoca and had babies! I have Bontex stiffener in this one.

The leather is now on the Van Der Spek website, as number 104.

White spots. NOTE: newer versions of this leather do not have these spots but I wanted them.

Design and cutting. I was allowed to choose where I wanted the leather cut.

Personal size. I love the scars and range marks on this. It showed that the animal lived a life.

The feel of this binder is indescribable (literally). It is so nice and thick and solid and soft and sturdy. It is not heavy though. Best leather I have ever felt on a binder. It feels like real, proper leather. I have 30mm rings in it. I have 12 credit card pockets and two secretarial flaps – one on each side. I find secretarial pockets easier to use than slip pockets as the top flips open.
