It's a hand bindery

Established in 1985, Legatoria Koiné is a family-owned business based in Italy and specializing in both individuals and large orders. It’s a typical Italian workshop where we work every day with passion and purpose. Here, we handcraft journals, guest books and photo albums using high quality materials and vegetal-tanned leather which are supplied to us by qualified distributors. We supply many retail shops both in Italy and abroad and are proud to serve many private customers all over the world. 

We work by hands and have an eye for detail.

JOURNALS and DIARIES

Write. First thing in the morning. Unlock your creativity. It works.

If you believe in the benefit of journaling and are looking for a new reliable confident to share some of your thoughts, dreams or goals with, take a look at our beauties. 

Classic or old-style, hardbound or wrap, lined or plain, they’re all made of genuine leather and high quality paper. 

photo albums

Is it time to arrange your precious shots? Fine!

No matter whether they’re about your summer love, the last overseas adventure or family portraits, those photos are precious. Create an album for the years to come. It’s fun and easy: choose your favorite shots and get yourself in the mindset to tell a story.

A handcrafted album is a timeless treasure that cannot be replaced by technology.

gift ideas

How will I recognize you? Oh don’t worry. I’ll be carrying something.. (that you’ll  never forget)

Oh yeah! Old-fashioned writing instruments survive the wind of change. This selection of dip pens, bottles of colored ink and other accessories will keep you in the good grace of those who love writing the old way or collecting beautiful objects. 

We work with hands

We love what we do. Bookbinders select materials, then measure, cut, shape, assemble and put the finishing touches. Making books requires a human touch.

Where are we...

We’re in Tuscany. The region stretches from the Apennines to the Tyrrhenian Sea. It’s a land of medieval villages, historical towns, castles and defense systems, country churches and beautiful abbeys. Maybe one day…
