LIFE Vermilion Notebook - Blue - Lined - A6

A sibling to the LIFE Pistachio Notebook, the LIFE Vermilion Notebook is made with that beautifully-smooth L Writing Paper, made exclusively by LIFE themselves in Japan.

There is something truly unique about this paper, as it almost seems to defy the papery-rules of the physical universe... somehow being both immaculately smooth yet also having a wonderful little bit of tooth that almost feels al dente, so to speak, with just a "crunchy little bite" of texture under the nib that lends itself to a beautiful level of precision and awareness of exactly what interactions are happening between your pen and your paper.  We absolutely adore this paper here at Mishkas Pen Lab and if you're a paper afficionado, you need to give this paper a try!

This A6 size notebook has 32 sheets of ivory 85 GSM paper with 7mm-spaced horizontal rules.  The lined version of the LIFE Vermilion has a blue logo on its cream-colored cover, hence why we call this one "blue".  The horizontal line rulings here are done in a pretty vermilion-colored red, which almost tricks the eye into thinking the paper itself has a bit of a green tint, but once you've got some ink on the page you can see that the color remains true and the paper is indeed white.

Britney says, "These are my favorite daily-carry notebooks.  Beautiful, bright white paper that is so wonderfully smooth under the nib, but still with enough tooth to it to have some character.  The green rulings add some cheerful flavor and these notebooks are so affordable, they don't trigger the fear-of-use that some of us suffer from when something is too nice."
