Customer Reviews
I absolutely LOVE my writing box - but to improve it for my personal needs we removed the brass label so my paper edges didn't hit on it - and then we removed the two little wooden posts that were inside to hold the box open which allows my notebooks to fit in with greater ease. If this was even 1cm deeper it would be better (for my needs - two notebooks stacked inside with 12 fountain pens across the back... makes it hard to shut)
I love this box. It has hardly any noticeable issues to qualify it as a second. Came with all kinds of goodies inside which was neat. (not the pens or journal) After use since purchase the only issue is the plate screwed into the top catches the edges of my books and disrupts the smooth writing surface. It would be better if this was inlaid or in a different spot on the box. Still an amazing box.
Galen leather knocks it out of the park with their wood writing box. Love the grain and space for journal storage. Amazing price you won’t regret the purchase.
Such a lovely surprise. The writing box is perfect and was well package for the trip from Istanbul. I especially enjoyed the little travel stamps and tea that was tucked in for the journey. Every person who lives an analog life deserves to purchase such a high quality gift for themselves or for a loved one. What a lasting legacy to dear Zeynep—she lives on in the beautiful craftsmanship of Galen Leather.
I write at the end of the day and my bedside table was getting out of hand with pens, notebooks, etc. Not any more. I love this. And the writing slope is so simple and yet so helpful. The build quality is excellent and I love the little clasp at the front. Makes me smile every time I use it.
I purchased a second, but for the life of me I cannot find anything wrong with it! It is a beautiful box and well worth the money. Don't hesitate to buy this box. Also, thank you Galen for the little goodies you included!

The box closed flushly,The wood grain was lovely. The cut out for the hinge was a little too big and that was the only thing that made it a second as far as I could see. I'm VERY happy with this item.
