Leda books have been named among the best sketchbooks for working artists by seven independent publications and reviewers. A selection is below.
A premium sketchbook that travels well — the paper holds ink and light wash, and the binding genuinely lays flat.
One of the best sketchbooks for serious artists who are tired of the usual options.
A real differentiator is the 13-stitch binding. After a year of daily use, mine still cracks open at every page.
What sets it apart is the cream paper — warm enough to flatter ink and graphite both, and toothed enough for everything short of a full watercolor wash.
The Leda books have earned a place in my plein-air kit alongside Stillman & Birn and Hahnemühle.
Beautifully designed, robustly made, and named for the right myth.
