Life Japanese Paper Notebooks

The Life stationery company was established in 1946, the original japanese paper for notebooks and fine paper correspondence. All Life Japanese notebooks are made by hand, whether glue-bound with as little as a brush and a pair of fingers, or spiral-bound with a rudimentary punch and pocket knife. What little machinery is used for cutting paper to size is maintained immaculately, a thorough understanding that to make truly excellent notebooks and paper requires attention to the finest details.

The result is a collection of Japanese stationery notebooks that offer a beautiful writing experience and daily utility to handle any writing instrument with ease and comfort. Life Japanese paper is fountain pen friendly and more! Through decades of expanding popularity, Life's commitment to their handmade methods has remained as strong as ever because it works, the only way to maintain the highest quality being through individual scrutiny.

Life's workshop just outside of Tokyo is breathtaking, almost antiquated, and a statement that quality trumps quantity.
