Graphilo is a series of high-quality Japanese notebooks known primarily for their paper. They were created by the brand Kobeha as part of the so-called Kobe School Project, with the main goal of offering the best possible writing experience—especially with fountain pens.

The most distinctive feature of Graphilo notebooks is their proprietary Graphilo paper.

Very smooth surface for effortless writing.
No feathering (ink does not spread into the paper fibers).
Minimal bleed-through even with very “wet” inks.
Excellent at showcasing ink color, shading, and contrast.

The paper has a weight of about 81.4 gsm, yet it performs better than many thicker papers.

You can write with broad nibs without ink bleeding to the other side.
Ink shades appear vivid and well defined.
The paper can even handle light watercolor or sketching.

A4 size.
50 loose sheets

Graphilo notebooks are especially popular among:

Fountain pen collectors
People who test many inks
Bullet journal or sketchbook users
Fans of Japanese stationery

Within the fountain pen community, Graphilo paper is considered one of the best for showcasing the properties of inks.
