Tomoe River Paper:
The 52gsm paper boasts an impressively thin composition and provides excellent performance for fountain pens. In fact, its unique properties allow inks to reveal their true luster and shimmer in ways that other papers simply cannot match. This Tomoe River paper is the very same one found in the popular Hobonichi Techo planner. By using the exact 52 gsm paper, we guarantee fountain pen enthusiasts will be able to appreciate the intricacies of shading inks and subtle color gradations. Sheening inks also excel on this paper, as they create pools of color that sit beautifully on the surface and give off a reflective look adored by many fountain pen users. Keep in mind, patience is key when using this paper and allowing it to fully dry is essential to prevent smudging, especially with sheening or metallic inks.
