Rhodia No. 16 Premium A5 Notepad - Black, Lined

Excellent paper that doesn't have to be extra thick to be extra good for fountain pen all inks!

Great quality paper for all kinds of fountain pen ink. It is very resistant to bleed through and doesn't have any noticeable dithering or bleeding around the edges of any lines when using heavy flow pens either. I got it to compile 70 demo swatches of every ink color I own including standard inks, sheen inks, shimmering inks, and shimmer+sheen inks. This paper highlights the color, sheen and shimmer of all kinds and brands of ink very well, far better than any copy paper, laserjet paper, or watercolor paper I've tried. I do like the Goulet Pens notepads with Tomoe River paper slightly more than this paper because the colors look slightly better on it but they are both extremely close in quality and performance so either is a great choice for my purpose. Rhodia seems to be the industry standard for making great all-around paper for fountain pens and the results of all my testing agrees with this, so if you need great paper for fountain pens then this is a great choice.

Extraordinary Little Lined Experience

I always thought paper was paper. Then again… we know all pens are not created equal! (Looking at you Bic Rollerball). If you invest in a fountain pen, this little pad is the perfect quick note, scratch pad. Not big enough for correspondence, but a perfect companion for your desk, or laptop bag for quick notes. The 90 lb paper is so smooth. From a Jinhao, to a Nakimi. A must buy that this fountain pen enthusiast stands behind 100%, 10 times over. A+!!!

Great notebook

I am always pleased with the service of Goulet pens
