The notebook, which is carefully bound by hand, has a gentle opening and a depth of flavor that blends in your hand as you use it. It is securely bound with thread, so the pages do not fall out easily, so you can use it for a long time. It goes well with fountain pens and brush pens, and is very comfortable to write. Journals, travel notebooks, sketchbooks, poetry collections, idea notebooks, etc., will turn your daily writing into a special time. A detail that highlights the charm of hand-dyed. The hand-dyed washi paper used in this Japanese-bound notebook is hand-finished by Yuzen washi dyeing craftsmen at a specialized factory in Kyoto. It is attractive for its deep colors and unique texture using traditional techniques. When you look at the close-up of the pattern, you can feel the delicate color overlap unique to hand-dyeing. Subtle shades and bleeding enhance the texture unique to handwork, creating a unique beauty. By carefully dyeing each plate, it creates a depth and warmth that cannot be expressed through simple printing. The finish is made with attention to detail and brings out the beauty of Japanese. Every time I use it, I can feel the meaning of the beautiful craftsmanship and traditional patterns of Japan. Please feel the charm of this texture and warmth created by the handiwork of craftsmen. Wishes and prayers contained in the blue sea wave pattern. Endless waves are a symbol of abundance. A big wave, a small, quiet wave. A pop design with large and small arches overlapping like a fan. It is a great motif for people from all over the world who are familiar with the sea, and this design can be seen not only in Japan, but also in Egypt and Persia. It also appeared in the story "The Tale of Genji" born in the Heian period, and became popular among the common people again in the Edo period. The symbol of abundant grace and infinity has come to be loved as an auspicious motif and is given in wedding and housewarming scenes. It is available in two colors: a refreshing blue and a warm brown. Although it has a calm color, it has a personality and is perfect as an item to color your daily writing. *Since it is made by cutting large paper, there are individual differences in the arrangement of the pattern. Please note.
