Nakabayashi started using the original high-end paper for fountain pens in the new Yu-Sari” series of notebooks. This is a specially designed paper, developed for writing with fountain pens, with a particularly strong emphasis on quick-drying of ink, no bleed-through, and a balance in between smoothness and optimal writing performance.

The word “Yu-Sari” stems from an archaic word meaning Sunset (YU = Sun, Sari = Past) and is also named after the similarity of the night coming quickly after sunset. Exactly like the ink dries quickly on a sheet after writing. The paper is 95gsm and shows greatly the ink properties, like sheening and shading. (Less than TRP and CAL papers, better than Rhodia.) Dry time is better than with Tomoe River Paper, and Cosmo Air Light paper. The Notebook with a soft card-stock cover embossed in gold. The notebook has traditional Japanese binding and completely lies flat while writing. Yu-sari notebook contains 96 sheets.

Available in B5 (182mm x 257mm) and A5 (148mm x 210mm) sizes, three individual colors/layouts (Black – 8mm lines / Orange – blank / Blue – 5 mm grid), 96 sheets for both B5 and A5 sizes – using a perfect thread binding. Only comes in a softcover version and one color per layout.
