Dressco Blue Onion Skin Paper Notebook – B6

Sale price$30.00 USD

Lightweight, quietly wrinkled, and beautifully pale—this notebook captures the charm of onion-skin paper in a calming Smoky Pale Blue. The text stock is Takeo’s Kaito Joe Onion Skin, a thin yet resilient paper with a gentle crepe-like wrinkle that adds a crisp, controlled feel to handwriting. Pencil, ballpoint, and fine fountain pen nibs move with pleasant feedback, while the subtle translucency invites layering, tracing, and airy note-taking.

The cover is Palpa White, a pulp-textured paper with a natural, matte touch that pairs gracefully with the blue text pages. Slate Blue Arabelle-FS endsheets bridge the cover and interior with a soft, velvety feel. Thoughtfully composed by Takeo’s Dressco line, this notebook highlights the depth of Japanese paper craft without feeling precious—easy to carry, inspiring to use.

Notes for fountain pen users: You may see show-through because of the paper’s thinness. Many writers enjoy the crisp, cushioned feel, especially with fine or extra-fine nibs.

TAKEO: More Than Just Paper

Founded in 1899 as a small paper shop in Kyobashi, Tokyo, TAKEO later moved to Kanda and has spent more than a century refining the expressive power of paper in a neighborhood of editors and printers. TAKEO sees paper not as a mere material but as an experience that begins the moment it is held. The warmth against the hand, the way light passes through a sheet, the sound when a page turns — the company has quietly explored why paper stays in our memory.

This approach comes to life at the Mihoncho Main Store (Paper Sample Gallery) in Kanda, Nishikicho. Visitors can pick up sheets, hold them to the light, stack and flip them, and check every nuance before they buy. You can feel the shades of white, the shadows of embossing, and the character of ink on a surface. Rather than simply selling paper as a tool, TAKEO creates a place where you can feel it first and choose with confidence. That commitment sits at the company’s core.

Its technical foundation is equally solid. TAKEO understands paper-making design, surface finishing, the reproducibility of color and texture, and the expressions that printing, processing, and binding can bring, then links these insights to the work of designers and production teams. This is why the company has supported choices where paper leads the story, from a single business card to book covers, packaging, and everyday stationery. For people who love paper, TAKEO is a trusted guide that helps you begin not with what to use, but with how it should feel and what it should communicate.
