The Moleskine notebook is the heir and successor to the legendary notebook used by artists and thinkers over the past two centuries. Today, Moleskine encompasses a family of nomadic objects dedicated to our mobile identities, versatile tools for both everyday and extraordinary journeys: notebooks, journals, bags, apps, writing instruments and reading accessories which complement each other in form and function, becoming an integral part of our personalities. The company began life as Modo&Modo, a small Milanese publisher that, in 1997, brought the original notebook back to life and established the Moleskine® trademark. Moleskine Srl went on to acquire the worldwide trademark rights for the brand in January 2007 and was listed on the Italian Stock Exchange in 2013. The brand was acquired and delisted by D’Ieteren at the end of 2016. With headquarters in Milan and offices in Cologne, New York, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo, Moleskine company counts around 400 employees and a vast network of partners and consultants. A dedicated Global Custom Edition team works to help the world’s leading cultural institutions, companies and agencies tell their stories through customized Moleskine objects.
