Handmade Leather Journals.

For creatives and thinkers

Hand-torn, Hand-stitched, Hand-crafted

Each journal is proudly crafted by a team of Kenyan youths, who pour their heart and soul in tearing every single paper by hand, stitching them on to the leather, and refining the end product, giving the journal their signature manuscript look. Its an intimate process by the makers.

 Our silk smooth, durable leather and great quality paper for different creatives, are locally sourced from Kenya. By supporting the Kenyan industry, we believe that these is our way of giving back to the community we are from.

Artists' gem

Our Story

Erregattiau is a company with its roots originating from Kenya. The company was founded by Anne, Karugu, and Brian while pursing their bachelors program at University of Nairobi to cater for creative students at the university who didn't have quality sketchbooks to drawn on. Inspired by the outcome, we provided a platform for experimentation, artistry and self-development to creatives and thinkers in the local communities of Nairobi.

Brian, one of the founders, came to Australia to pursue his studies at Deakin, noticed that the creative Australian community is no different. They yearn to experiment, to create, to document their experiences, to reflect. To connect. We decided to engage with them through our quality handmade journals and inpire them as well.
