Every story needs a narrator. The Narrator carries your words wherever inspiration finds you. Whether it’s daily notes, sketches, or stories worth retelling, this journal cover becomes a trusted companion, one that only grows more beautiful with time.
The Narrator is not just a journal cover it’s a partner in storytelling. Over time, every scratch, mark, and fold in the leather adds character, making your journal as personal as the pages inside.
Please specify in the Notes at Checkout if you would like:
- Rounded or Square corners
- Embossing - each letter is stamped individually by hand. I take great care with alignment, but tiny variations in height or spacing may occur as part of the handmade process.
Note: Each piece is handcrafted from full grain leather, which means natural variations in colour, grain, and occasional growth marks are to be expected. These are not flaws they’re part of what makes every journal unique.
