Description

Maintaining the basic specifications of university notebooks, such as the black spine on the woolen paper cover and the foolscap paper inside, this notebook is replete with PENCO's attention to detail in every aspect, representing a confident work of art that can be recommended not only to fountain pen users who value quality and demanding writing skills, but also to more experienced users who appreciate designer stationery. To this day, traditional family businesses in central Tokyo join forces to produce these notebooks. One family is responsible for printing the notebooks, which then passes them on to another family for trimming, and finally to another family for binding. "Foolscap" is the name (and its size) of a stationery commonly used in Europe and Great Britain in the 16th century. At that time, the watermark of a foolscap (clown hat) was often used on paper of this size. In the Penco version, transparent lines dominate the interior pages, made of premium stationery. The tip of your pen or pencil glides effortlessly over its smooth surface. In fact, the notebook is suitable for any writing instrument, including fountain pens, as the surface absorbs ink perfectly, without smudging or smearing. Product dimensions: W74 x H105 x D5 (mm) Weight: 22 g Material: Paper Note: CN119. 120/30 sheets, 60 pages, 7mm ruled, index pages, stapled binding. Made in Tokyo, Japan.
