This Traveler's Notebook is made from teal 1.2 mm thick, vegetable-tanned, full-grain leather and is completely hand-stitched. The spine is traditionally shaped, with six finely crafted raised bands harmoniously distributed according to the format. The cover features the standard hand-stitched pockets on the front and a Secretarial Pocket on the back. Four elastic bands inside securely hold multiple notebooks or inserts in place.

The small hearts are individually punched out and backed with colorful leather. The look is reminiscent of sunlight filtering through a canopy of leaves on a summer day, breaking into shimmering colors.

The leather is awarded the "PELLE AL VEGETALE" certificate.

About the collection

Hylaea – a name with a story. Originally, this collection was titled Hidden Treasure , inspired by a hidden garden in the heart of Nairobi. But as chapters close, new ones open, and now it bears a name that is even more deeply rooted for me.

Hylaea was the name Alexander von Humboldt used for the tropical rainforest of the Amazon lowlands—a symbol of the magic of primeval forests. At the same time, Hylaea is also the name of a genus of butterfly: Hylaea fasciaria lives in shady, damp spruce forests, where I, too, feel at home. Both combine to form a poetic story of transformation and new beginnings.

I launched this collection several years ago, but now it returns in a refined form. This time, I selected the deep blue-green leather from a traditional Italian tannery. It's vegetable-tanned, of the highest quality, and develops a unique, lustrous patina over time. This means that every Hylaea piece becomes more beautiful with each passing day.

About this leather

Full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather is a natural product of the highest quality. Each hide is as unique in structure, pattern, and feel as the animal it came from. Irregularities such as discoloration, veins, scars, puncture wounds, and the like are natural, intentional, and a testament to the leather's history. They are not defects, but rather what makes the product unique and special.
