"From the minute we brought them in, this pencil (and the rest of the brass series) caught my eye. Wingback has crafted a pencil that's a perfect blend of material, ergonomics, and style. Brass not only ages beautifully and uniquely to you, the weight is right between heavy and light, and the size means that it is nicely balanced for smaller hands. We carry it in a 0.7 and 0.9 and the little extra size that the 0.9 gives adds emphasis to whatever you're writing or drawing."

"While I don't have a favorite cover style, I love the Kakimori paper. It is smooth with just a hint of texture which makes for a wonderous writing experience and the gridded paper is subtle enough that is doesn't demand your attention or feel constricted."

"Going back to my favourite colour, the Graf Deep-Sea Green is a perfect shade of a bluey-green. It captures the depth of the water and invokes a feeling of meditation surely to bring calm to your writing session. An additional benefit with Graf inks is that most are document inks which means it's perfect to sign important docuemnts and won't fall prey to light and age as much as other inks."

"Those who know me in store will not be surprised by this choice. I recently got one and when added to my collection, it became my fourth Paper Republic journal. The added ribbons along with the tri-fold structure makes it the perfect companion for anyone with too much on the go. Additionally, they each have two different colored leathers instead of the typical one with the rest of their books. Mine is the Botany and Rustic Rose, invoking the beauty of the natural world each time I look at it."
