Journals Through the Ages

Leather-bound books and journals have deep roots in history. In the Middle Ages, handwritten codices in leather bindings were symbols of wealth, power, and, above all, education. They preserved not only religious texts but also chronicles, scientific knowledge, and literary works. To own such a book was to hold a piece of knowledge in your hands, a privilege reserved for a select few.

An Interesting Fact: Did you know that one of the largest medieval manuscripts in the world, the Codex Gigas or the Devil's Bible, was created in the early 13th century in Bohemia (modern-day Czech Republic)? Its leather-clad wooden covers with metal fittings protected 624 pages of immensely valuable text and illustrations.

Caring for Your Artefact

To ensure your journal serves you for as long as possible and grows more beautiful with age, give it a little care.

• Protect the leather from prolonged exposure to water and moisture. If it gets wet, let it air dry at room temperature, never in direct sunlight or near a heater.
• Occasionally, you can treat the leather with a special wax or conditioner to keep it supple and revive its colour. Apply a thin layer and polish with a soft cloth.
• Avoid contact with modern inks that could stain the leather. Place a sheet of blotting paper under your hand when writing.
• Do not overstuff the journal, as this can put excessive strain on the closing strap and buckle.
