This series of large bound journal are made with a lighter weight metallic leather. There are four metallic colour options with black binding and ties. As suggested by the name, these minimalist style journals are simple, using a basic tie closure. We omit any special hardware and use significantly less time to make them which allows us to offer them at a lower price. We use the same high quality, heavyweight, acid-free, mixed media art paper as in our premium journals. The paper has a natural white colour, a medium tooth, and is excellent for pencils, coloured pencils, and charcoal, as well as pen-and-ink, markers, oil pastels, and most wet media. Our journals are slow-made in Canada, meaning they are made by hand, by us. Each journal we make is unique - we offer a range of colours and styles, we use the "live edge" of the leather, and we choose to incorporate and celebrate the natural flaws whenever we can.
