We use Tomoe River Pocketbook Paper, which is smooth and comfortable to write on, has less ink bleeding and bleeding through, and is highly compatible with fountain pens. This paper is thin and lightweight and in addition to the standard black and blue-black inks, colored inks also look beautiful on it.
Nanami Paper, a stationery store in California once reached out to us, “We would like to sell notebooks with Tomoe River Paper, but we can’t manufacture the thin paper locally, can we work with Watanabe Bookbinding to make a special notebook series?" The Seven Seas series of notebooks was created in response to this request and Seven Seas CROSSFIELD is the Japanese remodeled version of that series.
Even this large volume opens flat, allowing for stress-free writing right up to the center line. Each book is finished by skilled craftsmen using the Lay-flat Binding method, which combines the advantages of both machine and hand processing.
The slightly larger 7mm square grid makes it easy to write difficult kanji and is also suitable for bold fountain pens. The blue-gray ruled lines are composed of dashed lines so that they do not repel ink. Printed in a color that is not too dark, it’s designed to not bother the user when writing.
The cover is finished with a binding cloth material often used on academic books to minimize deterioration over long-term use. The gold logo is designed to look like a Japanese family crest.
