on saleRhodia No. 16 A5 Notepad - Orange, Blank

I purchased this notepad for letter writing and it serves that purpose well. The paper is extremely smooth. I have used it with a Noodlers Nib Creaper and a Lammy Safari (fine nib). I’ve used Waterman’s Mysterious Blue and Noodlers Golden Brown without issue. No bleed through or feathering. This paper does have a somewhat long dry time, but that does not bother me.

I like the way the cover folds over and the pages remove easily and smooth.

Quality and price are good, but the actual usable paper size is 22mm shorter than advertised because of the large header margin used for the staples and the perforation line. As a result, this is not aesthetically appealing in ratio for letter writing.

I have used Rhodia for years. I carry a #12 in my pocket, a #16 in my book bag and use it for work. My roommate is a writer, so she goes thought lots of #16 and #19. The products are great - they work with any kind of fountain pen ink. And Brian's service and price is the best I have found.

I have been using the Rhodia notepads for some time and continue to truly like the quality and functionality. I normally do not leave comments, but had to this time in order to express my appreciation to Brian and Rachel for absolutely outstanding customer service. Great work, keep it up.
