Kakimori A5 Notebook - Banshu-ori 05

$32.00
Kakimori

Inspired by traditional Japanese textiles, Kakimori's A5 Banshu-ori 05 Notebook features an elegant fabric cover and provides a dedicated space for everyday sketches, journal entries, and notes.

This notebook's hardcover is crafted from Banshu-ori—a yarn-dyed textile from Japan’s historic Banshu region, celebrated for its meticulous craftsmanship and rich weaving heritage. The distinctive design is created by loosely weaving thick threads, then finished with a natural luster, resulting in a timeless, subtly metallic appearance and fine texture.

Inside, every detail is thoughtfully designed for daily use. The Smyth-sewn binding allows pages to lie fully flat, creating an A4 spread. The premium Yamamoto OK Fools paper, subtly printed with a gray 5mm grid, is fountain pen-friendly to provide a smooth and luxurious writing experience with every pen stroke.
