Inspired by the beauty of the Summer Court.

Artifact Description

Some journals are purchased with a specific purpose in mind.

Others seem to discover their purpose over time.

Empress of the Summer Court belongs firmly to the latter category.

Inspired by floral motifs and the Art Nouveau tradition associated with Alphonse Mucha, this Sovereign Journal feels equally at home in an artist’s studio, upon the desk of a poet, or among the carefully kept records of a naturalist.

Whether used as a personal journal, an artist’s sketchbook, a collection of observations, or a volume reserved for more unusual pursuits, its pages await a purpose chosen by their future owner.

Beneath its richly decorated cover await 496 pages of premium 200 gsm paper — a generous canvas for journaling, calligraphy, sketching, study notes, plans, ideas, and creations worthy of preservation.

Hand-painted page edges and metal corner protectors complete a volume designed not merely to be admired, but to accompany its owner for many years to come.

Its pages remain open to creativity, learning, personal reflection, and other pursuits best left undefined.

Beauty and utility are rarely found in equal measure. Empress of the Summer Court strives to offer both.

Part of The Sovereign Collection III, alongside Queen of the Night Sky.

Notes from the Chambers

Keeper of Curiorium:

Today I present the second resident of the Sovereign Collection.

Empress of the Summer Court..

Master of Scriptorium:

An elegant choice.

Its cover draws upon floral motifs and the Art Nouveau tradition associated with Alphonse Mucha.

Nature has inspired artists for centuries.

One suspects it will continue to do so for centuries more.

Mistress Curiovera:

A sensible arrangement.

Nature has also inspired herbalists, perfumers, gardeners, natural philosophers, and several people whose experiments were never fully explained.

Master of Scriptorium:

I was speaking of art.

Mistress Curiovera:

I am aware.

Keeper of Curiorium:

Would it be fair to say that this journal belongs amongst artists, naturalists, and creators?

Master of Scriptorium:

Certainly.

Inspiration often arrives from unexpected places.

Many of them happen to be growing outdoors

Mistress Curiovera:

Or indoors.

Preferably in carefully labelled containers.

Keeper of Curiorium:

I am almost afraid to ask.

Mistress Curiovera:

A wise decision.

Artifact Description

Some diaries are bought with a specific intention.

Others seem to choose their own destiny over time.

‘Queen of the Night Sky’ definitely belongs to the latter category.

Inspired by celestial motifs and the Art Nouveau tradition associated with Alfons Mucha, the ‘Queen of the Night Sky’ journal is equally at home on a scholar’s desk, in an astronomer’s observatory, or amongst a dreamer’s personal chronicles.

Whether it serves as a personal diary, an artist’s sketchbook, a record of observations, or a volume intended for more mysterious pursuits, its pages await the destiny chosen by its future owner.

Beneath the richly decorated cover lie 496 pages of high-quality 200 g/m² paper — a generous canvas for journaling, calligraphy, sketching, scientific notes, observations, plans and ideas worth preserving.

Hand-painted page edges and metal corners complete this volume, designed not only to be admired but to serve you for many years to come.

Its pages remain open to learning, creativity, personal reflection and other pursuits best left undefined.

Beauty and practicality rarely go hand in hand. ‘Queen of the Night Sky’ strives to offer both.

Notes from the Chambers

Keeper of Curiorium:

Today I found something that fits the Sovereign Collection perfectly.

I’ve named this artefact Queen of the Night Sky.

Master of Scriptorium:

An appropriate name.

The cover draws heavily upon celestial motifs and the Art Nouveau tradition associated with Alphonse Mucha.

It possesses that rare quality found in certain volumes: one feels compelled to open it long before one has decided what to write within it.

Keeper of Curiorium:

Scholars, dreamers, astronomers and perhaps a few individuals whose interests are best left unspecified may find it particularly appealing.

Master of Arcanium:

“Best left unspecified” ?

Master of Scriptorium:

Quite.

Master of Inventorium:

Technical assessment completed.

496 pages –… more than usual, and in fact considerably more.

200 g/m² paper – clearly premium quality

Hand-painted page edges – not an everyday task, and a demanding one at that

Metal protective corners.

Estimated capacity for notes: extensive.

Weight: significant.

Keeper of Curiorium:

And your conclusion?

Master of Inventorium:

A journal designed to be used for many years.

Master of Arcanium:

That is a surprisingly normal conclusion.

Master of Inventorium:

Additional conclusions have been withheld.

Hand-bound leather journal that carries the marks of your journey.
Made to be used, not stored.

The post The Explorer’s Journal – Bound by Hand- Hagnis appeared first on Curiorium.

]]>

Artifact Description

A notebook that doesn’t just record — it remembers.

There are things that shouldn’t live only on a screen.
Ideas. Journeys. Plans. Moments.

The Explorer’s Journal – “Hagnis”, was created for those who want to keep them for real.

Each piece is bound by hand and wrapped in natural leather — a material that changes over time, carrying marks of use, travel and memory.

No two are ever the same.

—Master of Scriptorium

Crafted to follow your journey

  • genuine leather that ages with character
  • hand-bound spine — visible, raw, intentional
  • 200–400 pages for writing, sketching and planning
  • durable kraft-style paper
  • made to be used, not stored

 

“Crazy Horse” leather is natural cowhide finished with waxes and oils, giving it exceptional durability and a distinctive, slightly changing appearance. During use, the material reacts to touch, bending, and pressure—subtle variations in shade and minor marks may appear, which are a natural result of the leather’s wear.

This type of finish means that surface scratches can usually be easily reduced by gently rubbing the area, which evens out the color thanks to the presence of waxes. Over time, the leather develops a unique patina, highlighting its natural character and the uniqueness of each piece.

It is precisely these properties that give Crazy Horse leather products their unique appearance as they are used.

 

—Master of Inventorium

Make it yours

Add a name, initials or a symbol — not as decoration, but as a mark of ownership.

Each journal can be personalised using handcrafted brass plates or direct marking into the leather.

This is not engraving.
This is a trace.

Not for everyone

This is not a perfect object.
It was never meant to be.

Minor variations, marks and asymmetry are part of the process — not flaws.

Because some things should feel like they were made, not manufactured.

From the Scriptorium

“We do not create notebooks.
We create places where memory can return.”

Notes from the Chambers

Keeper of Curiorium:

Today I found something interesting on the shelves at Scriptorium.

Master of Scriptorium :

Personally, I think it’s not only interesting but also well-made, and simply perfect for explorers of all kinds. And 400 pages is nothing to sneeze at.

Master of Inventorium :

Plus, there’s nothing to complain about when it comes to the craftsmanship or materials. It’s solid work in that old-school style, and it reminds me of the Wild West or some other frontier of civilization.

Master of Scriptorium :

IIt’s not just old-school… this leather ages beautifully, though I’m sure there’s a different term for it. And maybe we could add something, just from us.

Master of Inventorium :

Patina—a good name for the aging process. This leather is already “sealed,” but we can add a little personalization, a brass plate; its beautiful color will harmonize wonderfully with the color of the leather, though copper has its place here too, and on this plate, initials or something similar. Just don’t overdo it and ruin it with too much. Let’s keep a little mystery.

Cabinet Entry

Key features :

  • Cover made of “Crazy Horse” full-grain leather.
  • 400 pages of paper

]]> 799 Personalised wax seal – with a brass head diameter of 2cm to 5cm! https://curiorium.com/product/personalised-wax-seal/ Tue, 07 Apr 2026 18:23:35 +0000 https://curiorium.com/?post_type=product&p=719 Personalised wax seal

We are probably one of the few in the world to offer our collectors a range of heads made from high-quality brass, ranging from 2 cm (0.78 inches) to as much as 5 cm (1.97 inches) – practically two centimetres larger than the standard 3 cm (1.18 inches). Thanks to such a large surface area, it is now possible to reproduce more complex shapes, such as family or town coats of arms.
We offer our collectors support with design files, so you can send us virtually any standard graphic file, and we will take care of the rest.

The post Personalised wax seal – with a brass head diameter of 2cm to 5cm! appeared first on Curiorium.

]]>

Artifact Description

A personalised wax seal is the perfect choice for anyone with a romantic soul who feels slightly out of step with the modern world, with its constant rush and the fading ritual of writing letters. It captures the magic of that moment when our thoughts are set down on paper, sealed in an envelope and awaiting that final ‘approval’. Ideally, something unique, a mark that is ours alone. And this is where we come in with our range of personalised letterhead sizes, where we can choose a small header, just for a playful symbol we adore, and it doesn’t really bother us that no one else gets it. Or a sophisticated 4- or even 5-centimetre stamp, perfect for displaying a detailed emblem that will work a treat on grand, important occasions… or perhaps we simply want to stand out a little, because who says we can’t? We can also engrave the stamp handle, transforming it into a unique piece, just for the recipient.

—Master of Scriptorium

A technical aside.
Although engraving technology is advanced, it is not capable of reproducing extremely fine lines. This is simply because, for a line to be visible in wax (a very dense substance), it must be ‘enclosed’ by walls that form its boundaries. And this requires space ‘around it’; it follows, therefore, that if we want a very precise design, we need a larger seal head, although some of the lines (particularly thin ones) cannot be produced, due both to the engraving process and the physical properties of the wax itself.
To assist our collectors, we will process the file in a specialised manner so that it captures the spirit of the design as faithfully as possible. We will also send the modified design to the client for approval, along with the parameters used.

—Master of Inventorium

Available stamp head options:

Round stamps:
  • 22mm diameter (2.2cm/0.87in)
  • 25mm diameter (2.5cm/0.98in)
  • 30mm diameter(3cm/1.18in) Classic version
  • 35mm diameter(3.5cm/1.38in) Classic Plus Extra
  • 40mm diameter (4cm/1.57in) Larger version
  • 50mm diameter (5cm/1.97in) Extra-large version
Square stamps:
  • 25mm x 25mm /0.98in x 0.98in
  • 30mm x 30mm / 1.18in x 1.18in

Unlike standard products, presentation is not a secondary consideration here. Each head and handle can be matched to the chosen packaging — from basic options (in keeping with the ‘it’s just for me anyway’ principle) to elegant wooden boxes that we have selected specifically to please the eye, both our own and that of the recipient. Beyond the aesthetic appeal of these boxes, we have ensured that they can also serve other purposes, such as a box for our treasures or a memory chest for memories.

At the collector’s request, hand engraving is also available.

The aim is not the packaging itself, but the overall effect.

Notes from the Chambers

Keeper of Curiorium:

New artefacts have appeared on the shelves at Scriprotium: personalised wax seals in a range of sizes, from small to what must be the largest I’ve ever seen.

Master of  Inventorium:

Phew, small pieces can be tricky to make, even when you’re working with a material as good as brass, but once you get up to 4 or 5 centimetres, you can really work wonders.

Master of Scriptorium :

I immediately snap up a few of them; after all, in the old days, a decent person didn’t use only their own coat of arms – sometimes other symbols came in handy for different occasions..

Master of Scriptorium:

This is my palette of wax colours, which I really like; I always have plenty to choose from, ranging from classics like deep red to more interesting shades like cherry blossom.

Mistress of Curiovera :

Master of Inventorium:

This wax has far more uses than just marking letters. You can also use it to seal bottles, jars and even small boxes. It has some unusual uses too, but it’s also important that it melts easily and has a neutral scent.

Artifact Description

At the heart of the set lies a personalized seal with a 3 cm stamp face, allowing you to mark correspondence with your own symbol, monogram or design.

Some letters deserve more than an envelope.

The Curiorium Sealing Kit is a complete set designed for creating elegant wax seals for letters, journals, gifts and small rituals of craftsmanship.

At the heart of the set lies a personalized seal with a 3 cm stamp face, allowing you to mark your correspondence with a unique symbol, monogram or design.

Alongside the seal you will find the tools necessary for melting and preparing wax — a spoon, a small wax furnace, a candle and a bottle of sealing wax — all arranged inside a carefully crafted presentation box.

Whether used for letters, journals, gift wrapping or creative projects, this kit turns a simple action into a small ceremonial moment.

 

Notes from the Chambers

Keeper of Curiorium:
Today I found a rather fine sealing kit resting quietly on the shelves of Scriptorium.

Master of Scriptorium:
The stamp itself carries a 3 cm seal face suited for letters, journals and marks of ownership.

Master of Inventorium:
Wax may also seal bottles, packages, and other small acts of careful craftsmanship.
