The superb CIAK notebook. Black leather with acid free archival quality cream plain paper. 9x13cm. Patented horizontal elastic band secures any pen tightly against your notebook. CIAK journals and notebooks are made in Italy.
Italian Bonded Leather
Made from smooth soft Italian bonded leather, the CIAK's cover is firm yet flexible, which makes it an excellent alternative to a hardback cover. The use of bonded leather also makes CIAK notebooks very durable - ideal for everyday use.
Archival Quality, Acid Free Paper
There are 110 pages of permanently bound, plain cream paper that is perfect for sketching, fountain pen ink and ballpoints. The paper is archival quality and acid free and takes ink with no feathering or showthrough.
A Unique Leather Notebook
But that's where the conventional notebook ends.
Handmade in Florence, Italy, the CIAK notebook is a leather journal with a difference. CIAK features a patent protected horizontal elastic band, one major advantage of which is that a pen can be securely fastened to the notebook without fear of loss or damage. We've tried this with a variety of pens of different sizes ranging from a Pilot G2 to a Mont Blanc and the CIAK secured each one perfectly.
This is something that is simply impossible with any other notebook, due to their conventional vertical elastic bands. A quick look at the various Moleskine hacks on the Internet demonstrates the usefulness and value of having a pen attached to the notebook in this way.
The CIAK Range
The CIAK range is comprehensive and provides for user choice in virtually all elements of the notebook:
Sizes: 9x13cm, 12x17cm, 15x21cm (A5)
Colours: Black, red, blue, burnt orange, yellow.
Paper types: Ruled cream paper, plain cream paper, squared cream paper, plain white paper, multicolour ruled paper, address book, daily and weekly diary.
As well as the classic range of notebooks, the CIAK range also includes the CIAK Golf notebook, CIAK Travel notebook, CIAK Pocket slim notebook and CIAK Design themed notebook, which are all also available from The Journal Shop.

Customer Reviews
CIAK SMALL BLACK LEATHER JOURNAL This is an exellent little notebook/journal for people on the move, this small one is the perfectly pocket sized with extremely good quality paper and a beautiful leather exterior, i would strongly recommend this journal/notebook to anyone on the move and it is very reasonably priced, a great buy ;) Richard Moore - Birmingham
Private pleasure Great quality inside and out, like the other colours in the range. Very robust. The black differs in that the cover is beautifully matt, lacking the subtle gradations of the coloured journals. This gives an understated tactile quality far exceeding its price. Stealth luxury!
