Metallic grey leather journal with tooled decoration, Lockable. The Circle of Time

This journal is bound in antiqued metallic grey goatskin. It was designed to resemble a mysterious tome. The decoration was tooled and stamped into the leather, each element at the time and a patina was applied to fit the overall antique look of this book. This notebook has a functional lock that closes with a key to safely protect its content. It also has metal brads placed close to the edges so that the journal will lay flat when in use.

The theme of this book is Time and it's cyclic passage, and its representation as a zodiac divided into twelve signs. The eye in the middle is The Eye of Providence, a symbol that represents the divinity watching over humanity. The background was tooled with stars to remind of the celestial world. 

The book measures 10.2 x 7.5 inches (26 x 19 cm). It has 102 pages (204 sides) of artist quality paper. This is warm white Modigliani paper, hand torn (200 g/m²) and will work for both writing and sketching in any media.

The end pages are made of marbled paper, grey color with yellow, black and orange veins.
The headbands were hand sewn with black and silver color threads.

This book is great to use as a secret diary, as a grimoire or as a magic book. It would also be perfect for an artist who would fill it up with ink drawings or perhaps tattoo sketches.
