Some notebooks are purely functional. This one carries a point of view.
The Sheaffer x Emily in Paris Small Journal is a collaboration between one of America's oldest pen houses and the world of Parisian fantasy made familiar by Netflix. The result is a compact hardbound journal with enough considered detail to satisfy writers who care about their tools, and enough charm to make it a genuinely pleasing object to carry.
The cover
The beige hardcover is finished with a glossy surface and features gold-foil embossed detailing: an Eiffel Tower, the Emily in Paris monogram, and the Sheaffer x EIP branding. It's restrained rather than loud, the kind of cover that looks intentional sitting on a desk or slipped into a bag.
The paper
Inside, 144 pages of 90 gsm, acid-free, FSC-certified paper provide a smooth, fountain-pen-friendly writing surface. At 90 gsm, the paper handles most fountain pen inks without troublesome bleed-through, making it a practical choice for anyone using a wet nib or a broad point. The pages are also suitable for fine-liner sketching and detailed note-taking.
A vibrant centre spread features EIP-watermarked pages alongside Emily-inspired anecdotes, adding a moment of character to the interior without overwhelming it.
The details
Gold-gilded page edges give the journal its most quietly indulgent quality. Two ribbon bookmarks are included: one in Sheaffer's signature red, the other in a colour drawn from the journal's own palette. An elastic band closure keeps the journal securely shut, and an integrated pen loop on the spine holds a writing instrument in place. A rear storage pouch provides a discreet pocket for cards, notes, or folded papers.
A sticker sheet is included in the box for personalisation.
Practical considerations
The compact format makes this journal easy to carry in a coat pocket or small bag. The FSC certification confirms that the paper stock is sourced from responsibly managed forests. The acid-free composition means pages will resist yellowing over time, which matters if you intend to keep what you write.
In the box: 1 x small hardbound journal, 1 x sticker sheet.
