Clairefontaine is a paper, envelope and notebook producer and was formed near Strasbourg, France in 1858. Named after the town they were based out of; the company initially took advantage of rags supplied by the local textile industry. They began production of envelopes in 1880 and later followed with their famous notebooks.
Today, the company are a world apart from that of its initial years, producing up to 165,000 tons of paper a year. Yet one thing remains a consistent- their quality. Renowned for their high-quality yet affordable paper, a Clairefontaine ream will most certainly display the scribblings of your favourite fountain pen fantastically.
The Europa Notemaker range is great for students or office use. It has thick pressed board covers, with an attractive mottled/marble effect. It contains 120 pages (60 sheets) of excellent quality 90gsm lined white paper. Great for use with all types of pen, including fountain pens - it is very resistant to feathering and bleed.
It is the same paper as used by Rhodia in their notebook ranges and the sheets are perforated for easy removal and the pad is wirebound, enabling it to be folded flat. Available in A4, A5 or A6.
