Monsieur Notebooks Leather Journals


Monsieur Notebooks Leather Journals are notebooks that are made to be treasured! At a glance, this luxury notebook seems a bit like 'every other notebook' but, on closer inspection, they prove themselves to be the product of a company that is obsessed with notebooks and determined to make some of the best in the world!

Each Monsieur leather journal has the following great features: The cover is made from Genuine leather (vegetable tanned); The covers are finished by hand in India, providing fair wages and working conditions; The paper inside (there are a couple of different types) is smooth with a little bit of 'tooth' and is fountain pen friendly; There is an elastic closure, a cute title page and a page marker; It lies completely flat when open.

All of these features add up to an exceptional notebook. The genuine leather cover ages beautifully with time, showing the familiar marks and tactile qualities of any long-held companion, and becomes more and more dear to us each time we pick it up. Although quite stiff at first, like any genuine leather, with use it becomes warm and soft, somewhere between a hardcover journal and a soft cover exercise book.

Monsieur leather notebooks are also very strong and robust. You can bend the cover back on itself fully and there is no chance of causing damage. This also makes the notebook lie flat the next time you open it. Inside you are greeted by the Monsieur notebooks logo, a monocled and moustached Monsieur, and a cute title page.

But now, inside, is the real reason these notebooks are loved instantly by anybody who starts to use one. The paper inside is really beautiful, no matter which variety you have. The standard Monsieur notebooks paper is 90gsm and fountain pen friendly, though there will be some bleeding with very heavy inks. But, to deal with that, there is 100gsm fountain-pen paper available as well as 140gsm cartridge paper sketchbooks.

A luxury journal with a twist, Monsieur notebooks provide affordable, world class leather journals for your everyday notes or for your personal journal. Beautiful paper, genuine leather, robust construction...a really great notebook to accompany you through the day, to live on your desk or in your backpack, or as a gift to your pen and paper loving loved ones!
