Tsubame x Sanrio Collaboration A5

Founded in Tokyo in 1947, Tsubame Note is one of Japan's most enduring notebook makers — their classic design has remained virtually unchanged since their first notebook launched in the post-war era. This limited-edition collaboration with Sanrio brings Tsubame's legendary Fool's Paper together with beloved Sanrio character artwork for a notebook that's as collectible as it is functional.

The A5 cover features Hello Kitty and her family in a charming dining room scene, with a short introduction to Hello Kitty printed on the back cover. Inside, Tsubame's Fool's Paper delivers a smooth, pleasant writing surface that's neither too slick nor too toothy — acid-free, fluorescent dye-free, and highly resistant to ink bleed-through, making it an excellent choice for fountain pens.

Tsubame Note won the Good Design Long Life Award in 2012 — a recognition of products that have remained relevant and well-loved over decades.
