Looking For Spiral Bound Notebook With Dot Grid, Or Blank Pages

[biancac]

Hi All!

 

I am looking for a medium sized notebook, spiral bound on the left side, that has either a dot grid, or totally blank interior pages. A Rhodia Reverse Book with dot grid pages would be ideal, or a blank Webbie that was spiralbound instead for example. Fountain pen friendly with whiter, rather than cream paper....

 

Is this something I am going to have to make or is there something out there that you can suggest? Buying it would ensure I got it a lot sooner LOL.

 

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

I have tried the lined version only, but I suspect the paper would be similar in the dotted ones. The paper takes most inks with no bleed through. The paper is just a tad more absorbent so the ink line will not be as crisp, but it is so minimal and mostly unnoticeable unless one chooses to analyze it on close inspection against paper like midori (which is the most excellent paper of all). The paper has a very nice "soft" feel against the nib and is very pleasant to write on.

 

I believe the paper isn't really cream but not a bright white either.

 

EDIT to add that the customer service is outstanding! No affiliation; just a very happy repeat customer.

Great! I will try these!Thanks for the suggestion.

 

 

And if anyone thinks of others, I am open to buying a few kinds!

Rhodia is all I can think of. Goulet and, I think, Gumwater will do special orders if you find something in the catalogue you want.

RHODIA NO. 16 TOP WIREBOUND NOTEBOOK - 5.875 X 8.25, DOT GRID - ORANGE

 

I've been searching for the same white whale... I've found my perfect notebook from ONLY ONE PLACE, gouletpens.com. It's hard to find them even when on their site but its item number is #R16503, heres a direct link

 

http://www.gouletpens.com/r16503/p/R16503

 

Its my favorite notebook because its the ONLY one I've found that meets my criteria:

1. wire bound (i don't like holding back the bunched up paper in staple bounds once you're half way through a notebook)

* top bound isn't a must but I do prefer it as it's less obstructive to a page when folded over

2. perforated pages (i love fountain pens so much I have to write but I also scan ALOT of notes for future searching & reference)

3. fountain pen friendly ink (Rhodia is still my number one paper for fountain pen writing)

4. dot grid (after using dots I've never wished to go back to traditional grid lines)

 

I don't understand the supply of this book, It's Rhoda so why is goulet the only place I can order it from...!?

Fabriano makes an A5 side-double-wirebound blank notebook. It also comes in grid and lined versions, but not dots.
