I am doing Journaling for the past two years. But I wasn't getting perfect journal book, some of journals having lot's of contents,some are too bulky to carry..... but finally found a perfect journal book I m happy with the purchase. Keep on adding new products related to Journaling.

Great quality and craftsmanship!!

Will definitely buy again

One the best packaging I’ve seen off late. Shows how much the people behind TBC are proud of their hand-crafted products. The card in black was a nice greeting! Been a leather stationery manufacturer myself at some point of time and can understand and feel the efforts, love and care that goes behind it. Certainly recommend it to others. Way to go TBC peeps.

Love your product from black canvas , I’ll buy more

Product is of premium quality.

Absolute beauty! I got a customized typewriter design on this A6 cover. This is my 9th leather cover from TBC and I'm always equally excited to get a new one and TBC never fails to live up to my excitement.

For those of you who cannot find Travelers Notebooks in India this is the perfect option. The size is just great and the pages are high quality too! Can't wait to purchase more.

Lovely texture and colour, which I could decorate my way!! Hope no live and healthy animal was harmed in making this journal.🤞

Recently, I ordered 2 Pen Capsules with an additional one for free. Along with them, I also ordered Personalization (Heat Embossed name printing) for two of my Pen Capsules for a cost of Rs. 250 each. Immediately after placing the order, they called me regarding the Personalization. I was told that they could only print up to 3 letters on these pen sleeves (I was expecting 4-6 letters), which disappointed me. They also told me that they couldn’t do the other type of Personalization (laser-engraving or antique nameplate), which is not optional for my products!
Thus, I instructed them to print only the initials of my name, and they did the needful. I must also add that they were very courteous over the phone and shipped the order on the same day!
The delivery was on time, and to my surprise, the leather pen capsules, with the “Personalization,” are very good! I like the Personalization. They are more prominent on the "pebbled grain textured" leather than the "smooth textured" ones. Considering the application, I feel that the price could be a little lower. Overall, I am satisfied with the product.
I hope this info helps you to decide on your future orders.
Thank you, THE BLACK CANVAS. I’ll definitely order again.

I was initially skeptical as the price compared to similar products on other popular e-commerce sites is pretty low! So, I ordered 2 (with the buy 2 get 1 free offer) Pen Capsules. I also ordered Personalization (Heat Embossed name printing) for two of my Pen Capsules for a cost of 250 each. Immediately after placing the order, they called me regarding the Personalization. I was told that they could only print up to 3 letters on these pen sleeves (I was expecting 4-6 letters). Thus, I told them to print only the initials of my name, and they did the needful. I must also add that they were very courteous over the phone and shipped the order on the same day!
The delivery was on time, and the packaging was very good. To my surprise, the feature, including “Personalization,” is also excellent! The Pen Capsules seem like genuine leather-made pouches—a total value for money! Each of them is big enough to hold a moderately fat fountain pen, such as the Lamy Safari or heavy Jinhao Fountain Pens. Nevertheless, it will be a bit small for India-made big pens like Ranga, Kanwrite, or Click Fountain Pens. Good for traveling with your favorite pens. Overall, I am satisfied with the product.
Unfortunately, despite having so many good Fountain pen manufacturers and thousands of pen lovers in India, we don’t have dedicated Indian companies that make apt accessories for fountain pens! Either we have to import these products from abroad or use the Chinese-made terrible products. Remarkably, THE BLACK CANVAS is one of those rare Indian companies artfully producing world-class products that serve the purpose!
I hope this info helps you to decide on your future orders.
Thank you, THE BLACK CANVAS. I’ll definitely order again.

Happy with the product and price!

Great Product

I liked the detailing involved in the product. The thickness to sizing to colour to the shape and it's fold.. All good.. makes the designer in me happy.. though as a customer i find it heavy on pocket :)

The quality of the product is good but it is little expensive and the image do not make it clear the size of the journal there should be a comparative image of size explain
