Colorverse Joy in the Ordinary Under the Shade Ink Swatch

Thursday Drops: New Notsu Paper, Permanent Platinum Inks, and a July 4th Weekend Promo!

July 2, 2026

Notsu continues to expand their lineup of fountain-pen-friendly organizational products, including more blue Centre Rise notecard holders, new sticky notes, and a new set of “To Do” desk pads. We’ve also received a fresh shipment of Platinum inks (including two new permanent inks) as well as a new addition to the Colorverse “Joy in the Ordinary” collection. Finally, we have more of our favorite iLootPaperie Washi Tape, as well as new Well-Appointed Desk stamps and stickers.

UPDATE: As of Friday July 3, TWSBI ECO “Horse Year” pens are now available for pre-order, with pens shipping July 6. This is a limited edition which will only have one run, per TWSBI.

Don’t Miss Our Fourth of July Weekend Promo: Free Ink!

We have a special offer this weekend - all orders placed 7/2-7/5 that qualify for free shipping ($75+) will automatically receive a complimentary bottle of fountain pen ink, valued anywhere from $9-15. In the regular course of shipping product, ink bottles and packaging get scratched, dented, and stained. While some of this is normal and the ink can still be sold, others get pulled as “scratch ‘n dent” items. Rather than run a sale we would prefer to just give it away, so all qualifying online orders will receive a free mystery bottle while supplies last! No coupon code necessary.

We are open this weekend in our Nashville shop normal hours: 1-6pm Thursday and Friday, and 10am-5pm on July 4th! If you’re in town for the weekend come by and visit!

  1. Notsu Centre Rise To Do List Card Stand. The Notsu Centre Rise card box/organizer is back, and now with a blue option in addition to black and orange!

  2. Notsu Large Format Dot Grid Notecards. These large 5x7 notecards are back in stock, and they fold in half so that you can tuck them away inside your notebook, pocket or bag for quick reference.

  3. Notsu Dot Grid and Graph Sticky Notes. These sticky notes are sold in a four-pack, and feature dot grid, graph, or colored graph paper.

  4. Notsu Writing Pads and To Do Pads. Notsu paper works well with most inks, and the thicker paper stands up well in a desk pad. In addition to the dot grid and graph pads (available in both letter and A5 sizes), Notsu now makes

  5. Platinum Classic Inks. This series of fountain pen friendly iron gall inks offers six different colors that become permanent when they dry. Iron gall is a classic ink formulation used for centuries for archival purposes, and darkens as it dries, resulting in a unique look reminiscent of vintage letters.

  6. Platinum Pigmented Inks. We’ve expanded our offering of Platinum Pigmented inks to include Brun Sepia, a permanent brown.

  7. Platinum Chou Kuru Black. Do you require the ultimate black ink? As in, an ink as dark as you can possibly make it? Chou Kuro should be on your radar. While definitely one of the more premium inks that we sell, it’s always difficult to keep in stock.

  8. Colorverse Joy in the Ordinary Inks. One of this year’s sleeper hits for us, the Colorverse “Joy in the Ordinary” line includes muted pastel inks and now the grey “Under the Shade.”

  9. iLootPaperie Washi Tape (Yes, Including the Really Fun Ones!). We’ve restocked on our best-selling washi tape of all time. IYKYK.

  10. Well-Appointed Desk Stickers and Stamp Sets. We have a fresh shipment of vintage-inspired stickers and rubber stamps designed by Ana! The rubber stamps are designed to help you set up your planner and organize your inks swatches.
