I had to go through a process of elimination when I got my first one... I thought about what I would probably eventually get; a portfolio, journal, date book cover and so on. up to now I have a red river garden portfolio cover, I requested that one, and they complied with a small extra charge, and a wine journal covers with running horses (I haven't seen that one lately, wondering if it has been discontinued). I still would like a date book cover, a business card cover and a purse.

I'd really appreciate your opinion

I have the Tree of Life cover from Oberon in saddle; they have so many nice looking choices it was very difficult to make a decision!

Sorry for small thumbnails.
I've got no links to give, website's not finished yet.

But I can attach bigger pictures

There are only a few companies making premium quality covers, so it's nice to see new entries into the market. The difficult part will be establishing a reputation for quality to ease concerns of an overseas purchase from a small company.

From the one image, I like that you kept the interior simple, and if that's an accurate color representation I like the dark gray color of the lining and straps.

Also if you make a cover with a pebbled/textured dark brown genuine leather exterior with no hanging flaps, and a soft dark gray interior, I will pay one billion rubles for it. Well, maybe less.

I splashed out on an Oberon cover for me for Christmas. I had such a hard time choosing, because they are all so beautiful. In the end I went for the celtic pattern. I love it.

I ordered it on 15 Dec and it arrived here, across the world, on 23 Dec.

I like my Oberon covers best, but keep in mind that they are closed until mid-January, so there will be a wait for your orders to be fulfilled.

haha! I know frustrating huh? the best thing to do is decide if there is a possibility that you might ever get another product from them

I would LOVE something like these. As much as folks rave about Oberon, those never really impressed me. Yours look amazing. I've seen other covers that "look" like a book, but these are the best I've seen. Sign me up to buy that first one (hearts/flowers) as soon as they're available for international sales!

The decision was very difficult for me, as well. I actually read Oberon's description of what each design meant (you have to check their journal cover selections to get that info - they call it "The Oberon Image Story," and show it under the images on each journal design page) then narrowed things down to about six of them. I then opened up each image of the covers that I liked best in their own separate window (I have a tri-monitor set up for my main desktop so had plenty of screen real estate to utilize for this) and compared them side by side. Talk about obsessing!

Good luck with your decision!
