Mother Leda Sketchbook — A5 Medium

160 pages of cream, acid-free paper in a thread-sewn binding, PU faux-leather cover, accordion back pocket, elastic closure. The A5 Medium, built for compact daily carry. Named for Leda, mother of Helen of Troy and the twin stars.

• SOFT, SMOOTH, EASY TO ERASE: A forgiving surface for pencil, ink, pen, and charcoal that erases cleanly without breaking down, made for quick studies and working through ideas, not precious first-and-only attempts
• GROWS MORE CHARACTER WITH USE: This isn't a book meant to stay pristine. Watercolor washes may cause light buckling, pages take on a lived-in look, and the sketchbook becomes something closer to a treasured, well-worn artifact than a blank showpiece
• MADE TO LAST, NOT TO TOSS: OBA-free paper resists fading and yellowing, so the sketchbook you fill today still looks the way you remember it in twenty years
• A5 SIZE, LEDA'S MOST POPULAR: The 8.25 x 5.7 inch format is easy to carry and easy to fill, with no bleed-through even with pen and ink
• MORE PAGES THAN MOLESKINE: 160 pages of 120 g/m² (81 lb) paper, 56 more pages than Moleskine's A5 Art Collection Sketchbook, so you draw longer before buying your next one
• THREAD-SEWN BINDING: Sewn construction holds up to daily use and lays flat once the spine is broken in
