When it comes to stationery, who doesn’t like a nice new set of notebooks? It’s all about that special moment when you, for the first time, start using a brand new notepad, journal or planner.
Today we can choose from floral designs to gold foil and abstract shapes when it comes to stationery but what about some old-school or vintage stationery? What about some nice ephemera, premium paper that’s created to last forever? It’s all about the tactile feel we care about so here are my personally top 5 vintage-inspired stationery products. Also, these are nice gift ideas for any stationery lovers!
1. Blackwing
Blackwing is not just a standard pencil - it’s the story behind it. It’s slowing down, experiencing the creative moment in full swing. Blackwing is such a quality pencil and it’s my absolute favorite when talking about vintage-inspired pencils. It has that uniqueness that makes it special and good-looking.
2. Vintage wood or metal rulers
I constantly use rulers to measure my drawings and composition. However, I don’t need a super specific or detailed ruler, it’s more about having and using the ruler to help me make my messy lines straight. And I enjoy using my wooden ruler over some plastic one. For any designer or artist out there, wooden or metal vintage ruler could be such a lovely gift idea. They’ll cherish it forever!

3. Kaweco
Kaweco Brass is my dream pen. One day I’ll buy myself one when I’ll be signing papers for our dream house. It’s on my to-do and I think it could be on yours! Kaweco pens are one of the most beautiful and vintage-inspired pens I know. The design, the color choice - I love everything! And with Kaweco company being founded in 1889, it feels like holding a piece of history in your hands.
