In the heart of Bendigo, upstairs in our bindery, we handcraft each leather book using the finest materials and time-honoured techniques. Every book is one of a kind — made to be held, used, and treasured for years to come.
Bound in warm brown aged goatskin with a natural patina, this Cook’s Journal is embossed with classic kitchen tools — a quiet nod to the joy of making and sharing food. Inside, vintage-style endpapers are printed with charming illustrations of pantry staples, utensils, and baking tins, ready to inspire your own collection of recipes, notes, or memories around the table.
Choose from blank or lined cream pages, each lightly textured to suit everything from quick jottings to long-form family favourites. A black grosgrain ribbon marks your place.
Available in two sizes — small (22cm x 14cm) and large (26cm x 20cm) — each journal is section-sewn for strength and longevity. A beautiful companion for everyday use or the beginning of a lasting family keepsake.
