{"product_id":"rhodia-composition-notebook-b5","title":"Rhodia Composition Notebook B5","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRhodia Composition Notebook\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is something quietly reassuring about a notebook that has been thought through properly. The Rhodia Boutique Composition Notebook takes the well-worn form of the classic American composition book and rebuilds it from the inside out, replacing the mediocre with the genuinely good.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe paper is the point. Each notebook contains 80 sheets (160 pages) of Clairefontaine superfine vellum at 80 gsm, with an exceptionally smooth satin finish that rewards good writing instruments rather than fighting them. It is acid-free, pH neutral, and PEFC-certified, meaning it comes from sustainably managed forest sources. Fountain pens, rollerballs, and fine-tipped markers all perform well here, with minimal bleed and very little show-through. If you write with a fountain pen and have ever been let down by paper that feathers or bleeds, this is a practical and reliable solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe binding is a real sewn, canvas-backed thread binding, which allows the notebook to open completely flat at 180 degrees. This is not a small thing. Writing in the gutter of a notebook that springs back on you is genuinely annoying. This one stays where you put it, which makes it comfortable to use on both sides of every page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover is made from flexible, water-resistant coated card in Rhodia's signature orange or a clean matte black. Both are durable under everyday use and recognisable to anyone who takes their paper seriously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRuling options are lined (7 mm line spacing with a 3 cm margin, college ruled) or 5 mm grid. The lined version suits those who write primarily in prose or keep journals and correspondence. The grid works well for structured notes, diagrams, or anyone who moves between writing and sketching on the same page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRhodia has been producing paper in France since 1932. The Boutique Composition Notebook carries that lineage without making a performance of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 190 x 250mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePaper weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80gsm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheets:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 (160 pages) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRuling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lined with margin (7mm) or 5mm grid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePaper:\u003c\/strong\u003e White, acid-free, pH neutral, PEFC-certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFountain pen friendly:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Canvas-backed sewn thread binding, lays flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flexible, water-resistant coated card \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0345\/4160\/0903\/files\/WEBFLAGS_FRANCE_125px.png?v=1613734598\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rhodia","offers":[{"title":"Grid","offer_id":45261403390087,"sku":"119209C","price":0.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Lined","offer_id":45261403422855,"sku":"119249C","price":19.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0345\/4160\/0903\/files\/119249C_1.jpg?v=1784269334","url":"https:\/\/thestraywhisker.com.au\/products\/rhodia-composition-notebook-b5","provider":"The Stray Whisker","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
