Full-grain Leather Notebook Cover designed to last a lifetime. Our custom engraving combined with natural leather provide a bespoke style you can call your own. With our high-quality, handcrafted construction, you can trust it will last a lifetime, and will be treasured for generations to come.
This is our version with no clasp closure. For the magnetic clasp closure version, see our premium notebook cover here
Our notebook covers can be personalised however you like - names, messages, quotes or images.
PRE-ORDERS: We handcraft to order. If preorders are available, we are fully booked. Please expect a 2-4 week wait for all preorders.
We stand behind our business, workmanship, and materials.
Full-grain leather, that is well cared for and conditioned regularly, can last a lifetime. As such, we expect the leather to have no issues.
If the stitching ever wears out in the first 5 years, simply return to us for free repair.
After 5 years, we will repair for a small fee should any issues occur.
We pride ourselves on our personal, custom engraving service.
There are no limits to names, initials, quotes, messages etc that can be engraved.
Upon ordering - keep an eye on your email inbox. I will send you a mock-up to confirm your design and you will get a good idea of what it looks like. Changes can still be made at this point - we're here to help.
Image engraving: I can engrave an image seen on my site, or another image or logo for you.
If it is an image you have seen in my work before - visit the "Design Selection" page to view these. The simplest way too order is to screenshot it and upload at the checkout. This way I can offer a large number of engraving options.
If it is a new image idea or logo etc - Email: info@stagworxleather.co.nz
I will work with you then to find a suitable laser compatible image before purchasing
Each notebook cover comes with a A5 spiral notebook included.
These notebooks are 15cm W x 21cm H x 1.2cm deep.
It will fit A5 notebooks this size or smaller. Deeper notebooks without a spiral usually fit too, but are untested for now.
We hand rub dye our natural leather - so colour WILL VARY. It is impossible to know exactly how each piece of leather will take up colour, but rest assured, if it didn't look spectacular, I would not sell it!
Tan/light brown can be anywhere between dark tan to brown.
Dark Brown is a deep brown
Scars & Creases: We use ONLY full-grain leather, which is the outermost, strongest leather layer. It may contain scars, creases and markings from the natural original hide. Each piece is truely unique and tells its own story
Due to the personalised nature of our business, I make every item to order.
Please expect up to 2 weeks for your item to be made, longer during busy seasons.
If you require your notebook cover by a certain date - please contact Sarah at info@stagworxleather.co.nz for an ETA of your item.
This means our order queue is a bit long at the moment - I manage my workload to ensure quality over quantity.
Preorders are available - just expect a longer wait for those.

Sarah
Leather Artisan
I'm Sarah, founder and owner of Stagworx leather. Nestled away on a small farm near Whanganui, New Zealand, I have a long lasting love of natural, quality goods. I design and make my leather pieces with practicality in mind. They're made to last, withstand the elements, and maintain a personal touch. Check out my store, or get in touch today if you have a special leather piece you would like made.
With a passion for natural materials, we create high quality leather goods to last a lifetime.
Each Stagworx piece is made from 100% full-grain leather that goes through an all natural vegetable-tanning process using tree bark and other organic materials.
The result? High quality leather that is biodegradable, and doesn't harm the environment during it's creation. No chemicals. No acids. No Chromium.
Every leather piece that requires stitching, is hand saddle stitched with linen thread. We choose this method over machine stitching, as we know saddle stitches last longer and are more reliable. At Stagworx Leather we value quality over speed.
Once crafted, all our leather goods are finished using natural oils and beeswax. As a result, our goods each have a unique look, that will age beautifully.
Why choose Stagworx Leather goods?
From nature. Returned to nature. With a lifetime of use in between.
Our Five Year Stitching Guarantee:
We back the quality of our materials and work.
Every piece that leaves our workshop is covered by our five year stitching warranty. Our guarantee covers any faults in the stitching of our products, when used under normal conditions.
The guarantee does not cover normal wear and tear, or wearing out over time.
If there is a failure in the stitching in the first 5 years, simply return to us for re-stitching free of charge.
All our goods can be repaired for a small fee at any time in their life. Full-grain leather can last a lifetime if conditioned regularly and cared for. We do not expect any issues with the leather. And stitching can always be re-done if ever needed.
They really are designed to last a lifetime!
"Dealing with Stagworx from a customer view point was fantastic! They were helpful, responded fast to emails and got the job done precisely the way I envisioned it. The cover arrived fast, fitted my NZCAA logbook perfectly and the quality of the leather, and craftsmanship is exceptional. I love the smell of the leather and the design I asked for came out awesome! "
"Sarah's communication and attention to detail ensured the cover fitted my logbook perfectly. Excellent quality and prompt service. Thanks Sarah!"
