Beautiful leather notebook cover, arrived in excellent condition, somehow shipped from Germany to Canada in about a week with a personalized thank you note. Hope to use the cover for a long time. Would totally recommend.
Super tolles Traveler‘s Notebook. Habe das Cover und das Insert bestellt. Qualitativ sehr gut verarbeitet. Sehr schönes und robustes Leder. Freue mich sehr es zu gebrauchen.
Hätte mir gewünscht, dass das Cover etwas grünlicher wäre, so wie das Insert. Das Cover hat einen Stich ins Blaue.
Tolles Produkt, sehr schön verpackt mit einer handgeschriebenen Notiz des Verkäufer. Herzlichen Dank dafür… Sehr besonders💕
The leather is a really beautiful quality, and the leather insert is sturdy - the pocket behind the card section snuggly fits a TN or B6 slim notebook and the cover itself could easily fit 2 or 3 more inserts without getting overly full. In hindsight I might have asked for some additional elastics and eyelets to be put in, as I want to have more than one notebook in here, but I am really happy with the product regardless. Swantje was really helpful with the questions I had too, delivery was also pretty quick considering it's Xmas time 🙏🏼💛
I’m very picky about my leather pieces because I used to make things like this- your attention to detail is wonderful. Thank you so much!
Copertina in pelle verde molto bella e robusta. Il colore è profondo, leggermente cangiante alla luce, e la pelle ha quella consistenza liscia che rende piacevole tenerla in mano. Le cuciture sono ben fatte e la struttura rimane solida anche quando è piena. L’elastico centrale è pratico e tiene bene il contenuto.
È un oggetto curato, perfetto per chi vuole una copertina in pelle resistente e senza fronzoli, fatta per essere usata ogni giorno.
Seller was very responsive to a question I had about the color of the items. Sent me pictures of the ones I was interested in.
My friend item was well packaged, quickly received and exactly as described.
Highly recommend this item and shop.
The material feels very pleasant to the touch, everything matches the description perfectly. The packaging is beautiful and neat, and the overall quality is outstanding!! Thank you!
This is a fabulous gift. I got this for my daughter and she loves it!!! "Very green very beautiful :D !!"
This maroon leather TN cover and insert are without question the best of the best among Etsy boutiques for leather craftsmanship, attention to detail and the use of top quality leather that will age beautifully with time. Swantje made the unwrapping a joyful experience with her kind, handwritten note and an attractive dust bag to keep the TN protected.
My Hobonichi Weeks, that contains drawings and sketches, loves being housed and hugged in this new TN for many years to come. This Etsy boutique has become my go-to favorite, and hopefully yours too.
Seller answered my question quickly. Shipped my order super fast. Arrived earlier than expected. Nice craftsmanship.
Item was as expected, although the leather was definitely smoother than I thought it would be. The distress marks of the leather looks interesting. Just be warned, leather wallets aren't as flat or thin as canvas wallets. I was a bit surprised that it adds a bit of bulk, but for a leather wallet it is fairly thin. Also there is over hang when using the official Traveler's Notebook cover. I wasn't sure if this would bother me, but I do like seeing the contrasting tones and it looks unique. I'm hoping this will hold up for a long time. I've added a side photo so people can see how it fits inside of a TN.
Einfach ein Träumchen!
Hochwertige Verarbeitung und sehr schneller Versand. Bin absolut begeistert! Definitiv eine Kaufempfehlung :-)
I love this wallet/zipper insert! The leather is beautiful (thin but has structure) and fits perfectly in my Traveler’s Company standard size TN wrapped around two inserts. Will be back for more soon! Thanks Swantje!
This product is as describe and is well made and designed to fit within the standard sized traveler's book - am very pleased with the purchase! Will order again for my other traveler's notebook!
Excellent, well crafted and meets all specifications for the standard sized Travelers Notebook! I highly recommend if you are in the market for this type of product!
Vielen Dank für dieses schöne Inlay für mein Travelers Notebook. Es passt sehr gut und ist prima verarbeitet.
Great travelers notebook and fast shipping!
Alles spitze, ganz lieben Dank!
Tolles Produkt!
