Paper Tasting Writing Pad Set – Gray vol.4

Sale price$10.00 USD Regular price$12.00 USD

The Paper Tasting Writing Pad Set – Gray vol.4 explores the subtle beauty of gray-toned Japanese paper stationery. This set brings together three different writing pads (25 sheets each), each offering a unique expression of gray, from vintage-inspired tones to practical papers originally designed for envelopes, wrapping, and bookmaking.

First Vintage Ash (B7) – A warm gray paper from the First Vintage series, featuring a soft, retro-inspired shade. It offers a natural tooth and firmness that works well with both fountain pens and pencils, making it ideal for journaling and note-taking.

Half Tone Color Abyss (A6) – Originally developed as an envelope paper, it was engineered with strength, writing suitability, and bag-making durability in mind. Its deep gray tone provides a smooth surface that enhances ink contrast and brings out subtle shading, making it especially enjoyable for fountain pen users.

Kony Wrap Sky (B6) – A soft gray-blue paper created for multiple uses including wrapping, envelopes, paper bags, and book endpapers. Its gentle hue and lightweight texture make it versatile for casual notes, creative projects, or decorative writing, while still offering durability.

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 gray-toned 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.
