capacity is stated more often than pen length, and length is what actually decides the outcome. \u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/pencase\"\u003ePencase\u003c\/a\u003e is 7.9 inches long and holds four pens, which covers a standard rollerball, a fountain pen and a couple of pencils comfortably. A full size fountain pen sits inside it without pressing against the seams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour is a deliberate number rather than a limit of construction. A pencase that holds ten pens becomes a bag of pens, rattles, and stops being something you put in a jacket. If you carry a full kit, the \u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/suede-pencase\"\u003eSuede Pencase\u003c\/a\u003e is the roomier option: zipped, softer, and better suited to a student or a designer carrying tools rather than a professional carrying two pens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe material difference matters here too. Calfskin holds its shape and stands on a desk; suede is softer, lighter and more forgiving in a crowded bag, but it marks more easily and does not wipe clean the same way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Paper Inside\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost leather notebook covers are sold without anyone mentioning what is in them, which is strange given that the paper is the part you actually use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/3-pack-craftsman-notebook\"\u003eCraftsman Notebooks\u003c\/a\u003e use 300 gsm textured covers and 110 gsm ivory inner pages. That inner weight is heavier than standard notebook paper, which is why fountain pen ink and rollerball sit on the surface rather than bleeding through to the next page. If you write with anything wetter than a ballpoint, this is the specification that matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/leather-notebook-journal\"\u003eA5 Leather Notebook\u003c\/a\u003e carries 80 sheets bound into the cover, which is around four months of daily notes for most people. The \u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/a5-leather-journal-notebook\"\u003eA5 Journal\u003c\/a\u003e holds two replaceable notebooks instead, so the leather stays and the paper cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Desk Surface\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA \u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/leather-mouse-pad\"\u003eleather mouse pad\u003c\/a\u003e at 8.7 by 8.3 inches is a square rather than the long rectangle gaming pads use, which suits a desk where the mouse moves in a small area next to a keyboard. Full grain leather gives optical and laser sensors a consistent surface to read, and unlike fabric it wipes clean and does not fray at the edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne honest note: this is the mouse pad on its own. Coasters and desk mats are separate products, and a photograph showing several leather pieces together on a desk is showing several products rather than a set.

A pencase, a notebook cover or a mouse pad lands well for a promotion, a graduation or a new role.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eName debossing is free on leather pieces and pressed into the surface rather than printed on it, and on a notebook cover it turns a generic object into a personal one.

If you prefer ruled paper, the bound Leather Notebook has 80 lined sheets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhat happens when the notebooks are full?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou put new ones in. The leather cover holds two A5 notebooks and they are meant to be replaced, so the only thing you ever buy again is paper. That is why a cover like this ends up ten years old and better looking than on the first day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow many pages does it have?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo notebooks of 34 sheets each, which is 136 pages in total. The cover measures 8.7\" x 6.3\" (22 x 16 cm) and the notebooks are A5, 8.3\" x 5.9\" (21 x 15 cm). It travels in a bag comfortably, but it is not a pocket notebook.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan I have a name on the cover?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, hot stamped into the leather. Hot stamping uses heat and foil rather than a laser, so the mark is deeper and warmer and it ages with the surface. Tell us the name or the initials with your order. Note that a personalized piece cannot be returned for a change of mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhat is the difference between this and the Leather Notebook?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis one is a cover with replaceable blank notebooks and a hot-stamped name; the Leather Notebook is a bound book with 80 lined, undated sheets in brown, green or black. Choose this if you want blank pages and a cover that outlives the paper, and that one if you want ruled pages in a single finished book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGoing back to pen and paper is still one of the cleanest ways to think.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstyle\u003e.faq-accordion details {\n  border-bottom: 1px solid #e5e5e5;\n  padding: 14px 0;\n}\n.faq-accordion summary {\n  cursor: pointer;\n  list-style: none;\n  position: relative;\n  padding-right: 30px;\n  font-weight: 500;\n  user-select: none;\n}\n.faq-accordion summary::-webkit-details-marker { display: none; }\n.faq-accordion summary::after {\n  content: \"+\";\n  position: absolute;\n  right: 0;\n  top: 50%;\n  transform: translateY(-50%);\n  font-size: 22px;\n  font-weight: 300;\n  transition: transform 0.2s ease;\n}\n.faq-accordion details[open] summary::after {\n  content: \"\\2212\";\n}\n.faq-accordion details \u003e *:not(summary) {\n  margin-top: 10px;\n  padding-bottom: 4px;\n}.sm-table { overflow-x: auto; margin: 1.1em 0; }\n.sm-table table { border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; font-size: 15px; }\n.sm-table caption { caption-side: top; text-align: left; font-weight: 600;\n  margin-bottom: .5em; }\n.sm-table th, .sm-table td { border: 1px solid #e0dbcf; padding: 10px 14px;\n  text-align: left; vertical-align: top; }\n.sm-table th[scope=\"row\"] { font-weight: 600; width: 42%; }\n.sm-table thead th { background: #f3efe4; }\n@media (max-width: 600px) {\n  .sm-table table { font-size: 14px; }\n  .sm-table th, .sm-table td { padding: 8px 10px; }\n}\u003c\/style\u003e\n","brand":"Semender Leather Goods","offers":[{"title":"Brown","offer_id":52910154809653,"sku":"JUDE-KA","price":125.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/4056\/2741\/files\/A5_Leather_Journal_Notebook_Brown_1.webp?v=1779391700"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/4056\/2741\/collections\/Deri_Kapakli_Defter_Ajanda_Renkler_c006643f-d642-4fd9-a42a-168d2bd88f85.webp?v=1786194403","url":"https:\/\/semenderleathergoods.com\/fr\/collections\/desk-and-office.oembed","provider":"Semender Leather Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
