It's Noted Bespoke Journals
Proudly made by hand in South Africa
Ivory or white coloured wood-free paper is gathered into sections and a technique of stitched binding used to produce ‘Book Blocks’ of 192 pages. 'Book Blocks' are produced in three standard sizes small, medium and large. The ivory or white coloured paper is available blank, lines dots, or grid printed. Our high-quality binding methods ensure that our journals lie flat when open and pages remain attached. Each 'Book Block' is supported by an inner-cover, creating what is called the ‘End Sheet’.
Ivory or white coloured ‘End Sheets’ can be replaced with litho printed or silk-screened images, giving you ‘carte-blanche’ when designing your modern journal. Perforated Fly-in-sheet or Tip-in-pages are not uncommon in our journals. The thin line of perforation makes it easier to tear out a page.
'Cover Material' is available in leather, polyurethane, vinyl, in a wide range of colours and textures. These elegant and stylish cover materials are durable, decorative, firmly attaching the 'Book Block' to the outer cover. Journals are offered both in flexi and hard cover option. Hot foil stamping, screen printing, blind embossing and laser printing are suitable Brand Processing Methods for all the cover materials in our range.
Standard features include reading ribbon, elastic band, head and tail band in a full range of colours. Non-standard features include page gilding and staining, pen holder, magnetic clip, filing pocket and personalisation.
