Paper Tasting Writing Pad Set – Japanese Washi Paper vol.3

Sale price$12.00 USD

Japanese paper stationery finds one of its most playful forms in the Paper Tasting Writing Pad Set – Japanese Washi Paper vol.3. Designed like a “wine tasting” for writing, this set offers three distinct mini writing pads (25 sheets each), each crafted from a different washi paper with its own character and story:

Yoshi Washi (B7) – Made from reeds along the Yodogawa river near Osaka, this pad combines elasticity and resilience. Its springy, smooth surface adds a lively bounce to your strokes, making ballpoint and gel pens glide beautifully.

Sheep Clouds Washi (A6) – Produced in Ehime Prefecture, this washi is created with a flowing water technique that forms a cloud-like tonal pattern. Fountain pen inks reveal striking shading and depth, giving every line a soft atmospheric quality.

Iro Masago (B6) – Developed in collaboration with FOOD Co-op, this eco-conscious pad incorporates crushed colored paper and recycled pulp. The result is a textured surface with visual depth, perfect for expressive journaling, sketching, or creative exploration.

Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to paper, and even the same sheet feels different depending on the nib of a fountain pen. Exploring how different writing pads respond to ink and touch 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.
