Made in Japan, this simple notepad was designed to create a luxurious writing experience. The pages are glued along the top and right sides, so the pages stay neatly in place regardless of how you use it: vertically or horizontally, on a desk or held in one hand. There is a small notch cut across the unglued corner, making it easy to see which corner to pull from when you're ready to remove a sheet. The notch also helps protect the corner from getting folded or crumpled over time.
This pad features classic Midori Diary (MD) paper, which was developed in 1960 and has been continuously improved on ever since. Midori has conducted many tests using a variety of writing instruments to inspect the paper quality, including observing whether the ink feathers or bleeds, how it dries, how well the pen tips glide across the surface, how the paper feels to the touch, and so on. As a result, the paper is bleed resistant, feather resistant, and fountain pen friendly, giving the user a pleasant writing experience.
