Great paper
It all starts with selecting the finest materials. We consider only sustainably-produced papers and consider everything from the feel of the paper in your hands, to its opacity, smoothness and resistance to feathering with fountain pen.
Reusable leather notebook and diary cover made in the UK from premium bridle leather
A5 Leather Cover in Black bridle leather, designed and made in collaboration with Doe Leather. . Designed to fit perfectly around all Mark+Fold Notebooks and Diaries. The leather cover can be used again and again. It will only improve with age, as it takes on a patina with use.
The leather pen loops are taken from Doe’s 70-year-old archive of embossed leather swatches, passed down now through three generations. Each of our leather covers has a unique colour loop, and special colour requests are subject to availability. There is a subtle elastic behind the pen loop, to accommodate a range of pen widths.
Hand-made in Walsall UK.

It all starts with selecting the finest materials. We consider only sustainably-produced papers and consider everything from the feel of the paper in your hands, to its opacity, smoothness and resistance to feathering with fountain pen.
A good notebook should open flat without force, for a comfortable writing experience. Our specialist layflat binding combines thread-sewing with cold glue, to retain flexibility. The results speak for themselves — a book that is as robust as it is elegant.
Our considered edit of timeless classics are designed to feel intuitive and unobtrusive. We want the design to feel almost invisible, whilst giving you the structure and prompts you need to get things done.
Our paper-based packaging is designed to be re-used, and then recycled. Our glassine envelopes and hand-wrapped bible paper replace single-use plastics.
We proudly share every step of our production process. We work exclusively with specialist printers and book-binders in UK and Europe who share our perfectionism and attention to detail.
Initiatives like Pre-orders and Seconds Sales help to avoid over-production or waste. Our like-minded bindery recycles even the paper dust created during production.
