The Notebook A4 Collection
$49.00
Some notebooks you buy and forget about. This isn’t one of them.
The PaperMaid A4 Notebook was made with care — the kind you can feel the moment you open it. Instead of flimsy staples, it’s stitched together with strong, clean Singer stitching that lets it lie flat while you write. It’s the kind of detail that makes you actually want to use it every day — whether you’re jotting down ideas, making plans, or just clearing your head.
This collection comes with six colours of The Notebook, each one simple but full of character. Smooth, 100gsm FSC-certified paper makes writing feel easy — no drag, no bleed, just a clean page that’s ready for whatever’s on your mind.
Made in New Zealand, it’s a notebook that’s built to last and made to be loved.
