I love Benjamin Castro’s shop on Etsy. His books are all one of a kind and considering all the work that goes into them, not pricey.
This is a solid 9×11 unique cobalt leather journal with archival parchment paper for the text block.
- The inside end-sheets are a custom marble design and the spine is hand sewn and supported with four strong cords.
- Hand sewn end-bands and a matching cobalt ribbon bookmark.
- The capped end is open so that the new owner can customize.
- The covers have inlays and blind tooling.
- Buffed and aged for a great nostalgic feel.

Thank you so much for featuring my creation. I truly appreciate it.
You are the best.

Superb – but if one had a fine notebook like this one would feel that the contents should match. On a bookbinding course I made a photograph album with a slip case but it remains empty. I can’t decide which photographs are good enough for it 🙁
That’s a problem I have too, George! Bookbinding is such an unappreciated art I think – so much work goes into it.
