Our company creates leather journal and sketchbook covers that make use of “cinceledo,” a dying Argentine art. While preserving this craft, our company also expands the art form to include many more historical styles, creating an original, entirely new form of leatherwork.
Each leather journal cover is entirely unique: no two covers are identical in either style or production. In addition, each cover is of premium quality, with hours of labor poured into every design. The end goal: classic, heirloom quality products.
Our company is modeled after the “small is beautiful” philosophy–a system that stresses the importance of ecologically responsible and psychologically healthy work where the focus is on the art rather than on profit or productivity. Profit, we believe, is a natural side effect of healthy and fulfilling hard work and living.
This company also prides itself on an open information work place and product. On our website, our customers can find out everything we know about the product– from how it’s made, where the materials come from, what the work environment is like, and how much the artisans and all employees are paid, to what ecological and social benefits and losses the company produces. We don’t want our customers distracted by jingles or slogans or branding images. But instead, we want them to have at hand the real information on the quality and history of the product to make intelligent, informed purchases.
