These were used for Furcoats.

This comment was the key to finding more like this one. I think they're called fur coat buckles. EDIT: And yet, I can't find this exact model anywhere. Most that I've found are far clunkier than this one.

Looks like a really simple version of an over center latch

Edit: op's image comes from a Lithuanian Etsy site, AVworkshop. if they're handmaking those journals..... Wow. It wouldn't surprise me if these clasps are made locally.
