the vessel

travellers & pocket size

the vessel is hand-stitched in New York City from vegetable-tanned leather, cut and finished without machines.

The leather develops a natural patina over time, meaning every vessel ages differently and becomes entirely your own.

Available in pocket and traveller's size, the journal is built to live in your bag, your back pocket, or on your desk. Refillable inserts let you keep the cover for life.

No two are the same. That is the point

$55 - Travellers Journal (A5 inserts)

$45 - Pocket (A6 inserts)

one side is a little rough around the edge. love it honestly. feels nothing like the stuff on amazon.

got the pocket size. leather has already softened up after a few weeks of carrying it around. you can tell its actual quality leather, not the stuff that looks good in photos and falls apart in six months. bought one for my boyfriend too.
