Description
The Tome is our most capacious journal and will hold your stories, musings, sketches, and whatever other magic comes your way, as they have for me over the last many years!
I’ve spent a good part of my life binding books and filling them. I am sure my right arm is stronger for all of the writing and stitching and hauling of pages in journals for so much of my life. So many paths we’ve traveled together, me and my books. I wonder how many miles of words I’ve written if they were strung end to end?
Each of our Tomes has hand-stitched headbands at the top and bottom, and raised cords on the spine. Inside you will find line-free Strathmore drawing paper—thick, hand-torn, acid-free pages that work wonderfully with ink, pens (smooth and scritchy-scratchy), pencils, watercolours, and a myriad of other media. The linelessness allows your writing to vary from day to day, or to fill pages with drawings, to tape or glue in found things, or even to cut out. The pages are hand-stitched with linen binder’s thread and shaped and reinforced with linen bookbinding cord and tarlatan.
Our Tomes are meant to be carried daily and can take a beating. They are strong creatures, ready to accompany all aspiring treasure hunters, adventure seekers, documenters, and storytellers.

This Tome is so beautiful that it took me weeks to finally start using it! I wanted to preserve it but it’s made to filled with art and memories. So I am doing just that. The craftsmanship is superb. The paper is thick and sturdy enough for my watercolor paintings as well as marker art and journaling. The possibilities are endless. If you are on the fence about purchasing, do yourself the favor and make the leap. You will not be disappointed.
