Because the pattern is applied that way, the depth of the impression shifts across the cover, and the design that arrives may differ a little from the one photographed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside are 30 pages of unlined khadda paper. Khadda is a handmade cotton paper spun in Rajasthan from offcuts left over from the Indian garment industry, and only unbleached cotton is used, which is what leaves the sheet acid-free. It has a light tooth that suits a pencil or a ball-point. A fountain pen will feather on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe paper is made by a charity working on women's education and social standing in the rural villages it comes from.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 16 x 11 cm it sits between the pocket size and the desk size: large enough for a proper page of notes, small enough to go in a coat rather than a bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Care for an Embossed Leather Cover\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep it out of damp. Leather that is allowed to stay wet swells, and a swollen cover loses the crispness of the tooling permanently. Dust it with a soft dry brush worked along the pattern rather than a cloth, which snags on the raised edges. If the leather dries out and begins to feel papery, a trace of neutral conditioner will restore it, applied thinly, because balm settles into the recesses of the embossing and dries darker there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-embossed leather\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30, unlined handmade khadda paper (recycled unbleached cotton)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 x 11 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e India\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not recommended for fountain pens\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paper High","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55183874425212,"sku":"ILNB8P-BR","price":14.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0377\/6679\/1301\/files\/af6fa4a0ce344bb4d381a998c3332010c579749a2f31d551002f410cd8890bce.png?v=1751385219"}],"url":"https:\/\/kelvinrooms.shop\/en-us\/collections\/notebooks-journals.oembed","provider":"Kelvin Apothecary","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
