The Draft

"Let inspiration grow freely on the most solid foundation." The Draft is a core Foundation piece for note-takers, travellers, and thinkers, turning premium Italian Buttero leather into the most dependable writing companion. Available in two styles: the Standard, purely minimal with no extra detail; and the Artisan, with a hand-stitched pen loop on the side, reinforced with traditional saddle stitching.

• Buttero's dense structure gives a desk-like, stable writing surface
• Sized precisely for standard TN refills, with room for multiple inserts and accessories
• Comes with a care kit: horsehair brush, polishing cloth, and leather conditioning balm

Packaging

We believe packaging is more than protection — it's an extension of the design. Every piece comes with the following, so it feels considered whether it's a gift or a treat for yourself:

• Architectural Kraft Gift Box：An industrial-style rigid box, hand-tied with natural jute twine and a debossed leather tag.
• Leather Certificate of Origin：Comes with a dedicated certificate noting the leather's origin and certification, affirming handcrafted quality.
• Care Guide：A care guide in a textured black envelope, so you can keep your piece in its best condition with confidence.
• Hand-Marbled Wax Seal：Every wax seal is hand-mixed by our craftsman, giving each one a unique marbled texture as the final mark of authenticity.
• Branded Cotton Dust Bag：Made from natural cotton and linen, for easy everyday storage and surface protection.
• Custom Grey Tissue Paper：Wrapped inside with hykc-branded tissue paper, so every layer carries the same architectural aesthetic.
