A book that gathers the beauty of Japan, making writing enjoyable
Washi paper is a traditional Japanese manufacturing technique. Fibers are tightly woven together, uniting the front and back paper into one note.
The hand-crafted notes, carefully dyed, have a deep flavor that grows on you the more you use them.
Because the fibers are tightly woven, the pages are resistant to tearing and can be used for a long time with love.
They are highly compatible with fountain pens and ballpoint pens, making writing a pleasure. Perfect for diaries, travel journals, sketchbooks, poetry collections, idea notes, and more, they transform your daily writing into a special time.
The charm of hand-dyed details

The subtle gradations and nuances are created by handcrafting, producing a unique beauty like no other.

Pine is a symbol of longevity
The pine tree is a plant loved by Japanese people for a long time as a sacred symbol.
Even in the cold winter, it retains its green leaves, symbolizing "longevity". The pine, plum, and cherry blossoms together express the wish for "longevity of descendants."
Since the Edo period, pine has been regarded as a sacred plant where gods dwell, depicted on Noh stage backdrops, and pine gates have been made to welcome the New Year gods, becoming an indispensable presence in performing arts and celebrations.
The powerful vitality and beauty of the pine continue to be loved by many people today.
