Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship, amazing customer service.
I had contacted the craftsman who makes these for a custom order because I wanted mine to be made out of the floral stamped leather, and I wanted my one inside pocket to be vertical instead of horizontal. Although we did have a minor communication misunderstanding it was quickly resolved when I sent a picture of what I was looking for. (I just used mspaint to make a rough image of my design request) and because they are located outside of the United States my emails would always be responded to in the middle of the night. (This is not a complaint, if I sent an email or replied to one I would always receive a response the next day.) Shipping does take a little while if you don't choose expedited, but I didn't mind the wait. The pen holder is SUPER handy, he even gave me the option of making it larger or smaller for the pen's size, but I decided that the size they make them at is perfect already. I absolutely love my leather notebook cover, It turned out beautifully and is exactly what I asked for. He didn't charge me anything extra for the alterations, or for the different leather choice. The cover holds many A5 notebooks/pads with room in the pockets for smaller ones, or odds and ends, and Its definitely a buy-it-for-life item. I'll be a return shopper, I can't recommend it enough.
