Marble, marbled paper… and granite! We might be just a tiny bit biased, but we think this is one of the most gorgeous stationery collections we’ve ever put together… The stunning marbled cover of the Charfleet Book Bindery notebook is just beautiful and has a wonderfully tactile finish.

Our very first subscription box theme back in January 2016 was “Circles, Dots & Spheres” so we decided to (partly) duplicate that for our fifty first collection. This really is a big brand box. We started with two B6 dot grid notebooks, one from Leuchtturm1917, always a favourite brand with our subscribers; they’re a very…
Gold is the traditional gift for a fiftieth anniversary, so what better theme could there possibly be for our fiftieth stationery subscription box? We’ve featured several Castelli notebooks over the years, and chose one of their “Wabi Sabi” designs for this collection. Wabi Sabi is the Japanese philosophy of accepting imperfections and making the most…

Our May 2019 stationery collection was inspired by Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898-1972), a Dutch graphic artist who made mathematically inspired woodcuts, lithographs, and mezzotints. A lot of his work, but by no means all of it, was in black and white and he is famous for his optical illusion designs. We reproduced one of his…
We chose the theme “Ruby” for our April 2019 box as it marked our 40th box – where did the time go? Castelli have launched several new designs quite recently, including the Harris range. The dark red version was the perfect fit for this box and it has a flexible cover, a first for Castelli.…
