My best and final desk note pad!
5 out of 5 stars
My best and final desk note pad!
I'm one of those people that is always seeking the best notebooks, note pads, pencils and pens. Over the years I've tried hundred of different products and I think I've finally landed on my favorite. The base of this pad is a bent piece of coated aluminum (not bronze as someone might assume from the product photos). On top are two knurled nuts attached to another piece of coated aluminum to hold your paper in place and to make it easy to tear off a new sheet. It's a simple design, simple concept, and really well executed. It looks good on your desk. People will probably ask you about it. The paper is easy to replace and fits a fairly large pad so you won't have to do replacements very often. I personally love the 21x13.5cm size. It's smaller than a full size piece of note paper but about 3-4x the size of a post-it note. for me that means I feel comfortable jotting down a grocery list and tearing off a sheet, or taking a full set of notes in a meeting. This has become my go-to desk pad/note pad and I don't imagine anything will replace it in the near future!

    Well made. Nicely designed. Perhaps priced at a premium but as with any such product, one is aware of the price premium. I was surprised at the paper quality. I was expecting more of a “Rhodia” quality paper. This seems fine with my fountain pen, but it is a bit scratchy paper. For a utility style note pad I guess that’s acceptable.

    Should you buy it? Do you want to indulge a bit? It is certainly not an “essential” commodity but it is a sweet note pad.

    Beware, the #4 pad as featured above, has proven difficult to secure refills for.

    Absolutely amazing! The paper is thin and smooth, but still quite strong. No bleed-through or feathering with my fountain pens. Sheets tear cleanly, and the rubber feet on the back keep it from sliding around on my desk. I printed a lined sheet to go underneath so that I have a guide for writing in straight lines, which has made it perfect. The unit is sturdy, but not heavy and bulky. It's got a great retro feel without being cheesy, and works well in my minimalist office. Highly recommend.

    This old-fashioned paper pad with brass screws to hold the paper in place is, amazingly, still made in France. For the price, that's quite amazing. You can also get the replacement paper, also made in France, for a very reasonable price right on Amazon. It comes in a nice open-top black box, sealed in cellophane, perfect for gifting. And it's a gorgeous thing to have on the desk, even if you don't use it! Really unique, authentically French, and made in France. Five Stars!

    Listing displays and describes product as a package of 5 refills, but only a single pad was received. Product wrapping was split open and paper was creased. Like to think this was a simple mistake, however a review of other's feedback shows this seems to be the standard practice for this seller. A single pad can be had for around $6 at a reputable seller. $18 for 5 refills is a good deal (too good?), but is an outrageous price for a single pad. My advice is to avoid any purchase from National Art Supply.

    I purchased a second item through Amazon, the first "version" was from another vender.
    That being said, the version I got from Amazon, is slightly warped. It rocks a little when in use. Think uneven table. It is annoying. The other one (from a different vendor) did not have this issue.
    So, I don't know if it is a quality control issue on the manufacturer, or if the reason for the less expensive price is because of "factory seconds."
    <Some others state that the description is inaccurate for the product. Also, the product was significantly cheaper on Amazon versus the other vender, so this lead me to suspect that these are factory second products.>

    The issue I think is the placement of the foam feet, that is making the pad rock ever so slightly.

    That being said, the product is very good, if you get one with good quality control.
    The paper holds up rather well to a fountain pen, markers not so much.
    The true benefit of this product is the perforation. When the brass holder bar is tight, the page rips of cleanly with one hand. Also, there "Left over" page, (the part under the brass screws) can be used for one or two lines [perfect for phone numbers that you need to hand to someone else.]

    It is a nice pad to keep on your desk, but I personally prefer their smallest size.
    This size, 21cm X 13.5cm, is about the size of a half sheet of paper ~ 7 in by 5.5 in (you loose an inch for the perforated part). I write small, so this size is very big for me.

    So bottom line: I DO recommend the product, I DO NOT recommend the vendor.

    The metal parts are fine, heavy and well tooled but the edges of the stamped base are slightly sharp. The paper looks like someone took standard copier paper and cut it with a junior high guillotine paper-cutter.

    El diseño me resulta peculiar y a la vez agradable. El papel no es tan suave como algunos otros de marcas japonesas, sin embargo con plumas fuente de diferente plumin (incluyendo los los gruesos) tiene un desempeño bastante agradable, no traspasa el papel y es resistente a la tracción. Un bonito accesorio para el escritorio.
