Seyes or French Ruled Journal


echase

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a Seye's or French ruled journal, and was wondering if anyone knew of where i could get one? I know that pendemonium has some in clairfontaine paper, but they don't seem to be in stock. Are there any other sources?

I want a journal with lines that guide the height and spacing of the letters so I can work on getting my letters more uniform, and the French ruled paper seems to be just the thing. I just can't seem to find it! Any information on the French ruled journals, or other journals lined for calligraphy, would be very helpful. Thanks!

Papeterie Nota Bene has a 8 1/4 x 11 3/4in Clairefontaine notebook with Seyes ruling. They also have loose single and double Seyes ruled sheets.

 

I ordered a few weeks ago and am delighted with the papers I received and the customer service -- Russell sent a handwritten note and a sample of another paper with my order, as well as a Rhodia pencil.

 

They're up in Montreal, and shipping is a bit spendy to the US -- but they're having a sale through Sunday.

I bought some Clairefontaine Seyes notebooks on a business trip to France this past year. If you're going to the pen show in Atlanta tomorrow, I can bring an extra one to sell you...

 

I realize its a long shot, but IF you are in the Southeast AND are going, it would be a quick way to get what you're looking for.

 

PS - I love the French ruling, although my lowercase letters tend to be a bit taller than one Seyes rule and not quite as tall as two...

The Daily Planner in NYC carries Clairefontaine notebooks in various sizes. Linked below is a typical school notebook that kids all over France use.

wish some talented person with charting abilities could devise a geographical list with pen/ink/paper supply, by location..which is fluid enough to frequently update.

then we could ecologically minded plan routes to support our B&M shops, as well as our online sources.

I'm one who can't afford to buy pens that sit unused..so I so like to testdrive potentional buys. would very much like to tru this french ruled paper, as well as whitelines..

It's a little late, but if you know somebody from overseas, they can probably send you quite the amount for a very low price. It's their typical school item over in Vietnam, and I would assume elsewhere in Asia/Europe as well. I had gone last summer to visit family and got a bunch of these for < $0.10USD each. They're awesome. :) Though the covers had the funny typos and stuff. :P Instead of "Olympics" (during the Beijing Olympic times; I was trying to collect each character), the one notebook on the top of the pack would say Olympic while the rest would say Paralympics (They came in packs of 10 or something for about $1.00USD).
