Paper Tasting Writing Pad Set – Egg Shell vol.3

Sale price$12.00 USD

The Paper Tasting Writing Pad Set – Egg Shell vol.3 focuses on lightly textured papers that provide subtle tactile feedback while writing. Each of the three included pads (25 sheets each) carries its own story of development, showing how Japanese paper stationery blends practicality, creativity, and cultural background.

Slight (B7) – Developed to enhance expression and tactile comfort when using colored pencils and other art materials. This paper is widely used in Japanese adult coloring books, offering both strength and subtle tooth for an enjoyable artistic experience.

Monte Lukia (A6) – Produced at Nippon Paper’s Ishinomaki Mill, which suffered devastating damage during the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. Monte Lukia was created as a symbol of recovery and resilience. It incorporates air within its fibers, making it lighter yet thicker than ordinary paper, with a soft, unique texture.

Solist (B6) – First developed in 2002 at the Kagoshima Kawauchi Mill in collaboration with publishers. Solist answered the demand for high-bulk paper that made books feel substantial even with fewer pages. Unlike traditional ground-pulp sheets that tended to yellow over time, Solist maintains both thickness and long-lasting beauty. Its natural cream tone adds warmth, making it easy on the eyes and pleasant for long writing sessions.

Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to paper, and even the same sheet feels different depending on the nib or tip of a pen. Exploring how these lightly textured writing pads respond to different tools is one of the true joys of writing. The Paper Tasting Writing Pad Set series is designed to satisfy that curiosity, an engaging way to compare, discover, and celebrate the diversity of Japanese paper stationery.

Yamamoto Paper — Preserving the Joy of Paper for the Future

Based in Sakai, Osaka, Yamamoto Paper was founded in 1972 as a paper specialist. Drawing on decades of experience connecting paper manufacturers with end users, they now design and produce their own original stationery. At the heart of their work is a belief in “sharing the joy and warmth of paper with confidence for generations to come.”

Rather than simply selling beautiful paper, Yamamoto Paper values delivering the full character of each sheet—its writing feel, texture, and the way it changes over time. They are also known as “custodians” of paper culture, reviving legendary papers that have gone out of production and passing them on to the next generation.

What makes Yamamoto Paper especially beloved is their balance of craftsmanship and playfulness. Their Paper Tasting series, for example, lets you sample different types of paper as if you were tasting wine, turning the exploration of paper into a delightful experience. It’s this combination of uncompromising quality and creative spirit that has earned them loyal fans among stationery lovers and fountain pen enthusiasts around the world.
