Our A6 Paper Sampler is curated specifically for fountain pen enthusiasts, calligraphers, and ink collectors. We’ve brought together 8 of the most celebrated papers in the stationery world so you can test how they handle sheen, shading, and different nib widths—all in a convenient, pocket-friendly A6 size.
Whether you love the glass-like smoothness of Clairefontaine, the legendary ink-resistance of Tomoe River, or the satisfying subtle tooth of Midori MD, this pack lets you experience them all side-by-side to find your perfect writing experience.
What's Included: You will receive 5 sheets each of the following 8 papers (40 sheets total):
Tomoe River 52gsm: The legendary standard for bringing out massive sheen and shading with an impossibly thin profile.
Tomoe River 68gsm: A slightly thicker, more substantial version of the classic, offering less ghosting.
Iroful: Engineered to make ink colors pop with unmatched vibrance and depth.
Graphilo: A luxurious, coated Japanese paper renowned for creating crisp, precise lines with zero feathering.
Midori MD: A minimalist favorite featuring a subtle, pencil-like feedback and a warm cream tone.
Clairefontaine: The gold standard for a glass-smooth, bright white writing surface.
Mnemosyne (Maruman): A premium Japanese business paper that perfectly balances smoothness with incredibly consistent ink performance.
Neenah Southworth: Our most popular paper is this 90 gsm ivory parchment made in the USA. It shows off shimmer inks better than any other paper we've sampled.
