'The Neverending Story' is one of my favourite children's books. The book - and also the film of the book - has inspired me over the years to make several 'Auryn' journals.

This Auryn journal is designed to be refillable. It consists of a leather slip cover and a replaceable A4-size insert book. The cover is handmade from vintage buffalo hide. It has been given a lightly 'distressed' finish and is coloured with a natural 'mahogany' dye. The cover is also compatible with US Letter size.

The front cover is hand-tooled with the AURYN design. The insert book is a standard A4 size, so you can re-use the cover with a new refill book when the original is full - you could also use it with a standard A4 printed diary or year planner. You can choose from the following options:

1) unlined handmade cotton paper (50 pages/100 sides)

2) unlined cartridge drawing paper (50 pages/100 sides)

This version of the cover is finished in an organic wash of Mahogany Brown. It is available in other colours to order.

Size: A4 (30x21cm or approx 12x8.5inches) This is a versatile book. You could use it as a grimoire, book-of-shadows, or personal diary. You can also re-use it year after year with a current A4 printed diary. The leather of the cover will acquire a beautiful patina with age.

I love working with leather, but for ethical reasons I only use vintage leather for my books- ie leather from working animals that have come to the end of their lives.
