The word ‘surat’ has many meanings in different languages. But when we refer to the word in ‘Surat Journals’  it means ‘write’  in one of the Philipino language dialects.  At Surat Journals, you will find the ‘irresistible combination of leather and recycled paper’ as the proud owners and handcrafters say. The leather is imported from the Philippines, but the products are done right here in Dubai – the home of ARTE  handcrafts.

The journals that started it all.

It all started when two handcrafted journals were used to doodle coffee sketches and paintings. What evolved is what you can see in the photos below – an explosion of handcrafted leather journals to appease the ‘journalling’ appetites of those who love to journal whether by writing or sketching.

Happy Leather, happy buyers!

Don’t waste. Leather is used to create some awesome bookmarks!
