Fountain Pen Friendly Paper
A collection of my favorite fountain pen friendly papers that show shading, sheen and shimmer well and dont bleed with most inks - notice that Rhodia is not here :)
Great paper for fountain pens! It shows all the shading, shimmer and sheen :) This is a special line "Sarasara" which is specifically for fountain pen ink. (affiliate link)
Kokuyo Campus A5 Loose Leaf Paper, 100 Sheets
Love this Hobonichi, Tomoe River Paper - I think this is the 'good' paper, not the bad run from 2024. (affiliate link)
Hobonichi 2023 Grid Notebook (A6)
This is such an interesting paper, it often shows inks in a totally different shade to other papers. It is also fun to write on as it sort of drags and absorbs more ink that others - you either love it or hate it 😂 (affiliate link)

Journals and Notebooks
A collection of lovely little notebooks and journals - not all are fountain pen friendly.
These are so pretty, they work OK with fountain pens but they do not show the best qualities of the inks. They work great with other pens though and they are great as a gift with the Sarasa Gel Pens. (affiliate link)
