This is a handmade cover specifically for survey notebooks, crafted using natural (camel) colored Italian leather called "Alaska" and finished with hand stitching. The stitching color is ivory. The surface has a waxy coating, giving it a whitish appearance, but the original leather color is natural (camel). (See the 12th image.) As you use it, the wax will penetrate and wear off, gradually revealing the leather's original color. *This listing is for the cover and band only. Survey notebooks and pens are not included. *While you can use it for items other than survey notebooks if the size fits, the shallow insertion part of the cover may not be ideal for soft-covered notebooks. **Size** This cover is sized to fit one Kokuyo Notebook Survey Notebook (95 x 165 x 6mm). **Leather** This is Italian leather called "Alaska Shoulder" (La Perla Azzurra), vegetable-tanned, dyed, and finished with the "bagutta" method, which thoroughly infuses it with oil. The white wax on the surface will blend in with use, developing a rich, deep color. This is a leather that allows you to enjoy its aging process. **Included** Notebook cover band x 1 ---------------- ● Size (Outer dimensions) Height: Approx. 17.7 cm Width (fully open): Approx. 21.5 cm ● Quality As this is a natural material, there may be scratches, tiger stripes, and stains on the surface.
