The ancient Celts believed that trees were their ancestors and therefore, in Celtic Mythology, as in other mythologies around the world, a Tree of Life is sacred. In many cultures, the Tree of Life symbolises the spiritual link between heaven and earth: the tree trunk itself represents the universe, the roots reach down into the underworld whilst the branches stretch up to the heavens and the afterlife. It also symbolises the interconnectedness of everything in the universe.

This hand carved and hand stitched leather journal or sketchbook slipcover comes from my 'Celtic' range.

Shown here in size A5, it fits a  standard A5 ‘Page per Day’ diary, A5 notebook or sketchbook. A4 and A6 covers may also be available.

All my products are hand-fashioned. That means that these hand-carved and hand-stitched leather slip covers can be personalised, making them ideal for that special, one-of-a-kind gift.
