Superb craftmanship & design-- Wonderful leather-- A gift for all time.
I bought this journal for our son's birthday. He had the look on his face I was going to see. The quality and look that really suits him, and I can honestly say he has excellent taste. I think the company profile was also a big win. Sincere thanks to all who had a hand in the process! I'll be buying more of your products down the road
I purchased the Chocolate Journal for use with my Hobonichi Cousin, and it is STUNNING. The website photos don't do it justice. The drum tanned leather has a lovely grain, and the burned in pattern is so well done. I love that the spine and back are also patterned; it feels so good in the hand. I'm so pleased I just ordered a card holder for my son! :) Thank you, Oberon Design!
I have had an Oberon journal for a number of years and consider it a cherished friend. I bought the journal pictured above for a young friend who grew up as a Celtic dancer and majored in creative writing. She seemed delighted with the gift.
Such a nice journal. Even the leather smells good.
I have purchased many Oberon journals over the past 15 years. The craftsmanship is outstanding. They make the perfect gift
Bought this for my great nephew’s first holy communion gift. He loves to draw and write all the time. Have not given it to him yet, but it is so beautiful how can he not like it.
I have purchased many items from Oberon over the years. The beauty and quality of their products keeps me coming back. They make great gifts
I'm thrilled with this beautifully crafted journal for writing and light sketching. The leather cover's design and colors are gorgeous. If you do mixed-media work, you might want to replace the blank book that is provided with a sketchbook for that purpose (that is, one with heavyweight paper). It's easy to swap out the books.
This item arrived on time, hassle free, beautiful, just what I wanted.. Very happy and would recommend this site...
I have had one of your journals since 1994. It was a gift one that I have cherished. It ooses with quality, and beauty. I recently bought two more and was pleased to learn that the quality of you product is still of the best quality of any product I have. I plan to purchase another, one of the larger size as well as a messenger bag. Love these journals. Never change, please.
