This is my story. To my own self be true | Limited Edition
Onion skin paper is thin, slightly translucent, and remarkably durable. Used for centuries, it develops a gentle cockled finish with time and writing that feels less like wear and more like weathering. The journal begins to look like it has lived.
Inside are 320 pages of blank onion skin paper. A reversible insert provides a line guide on one side and a dot grid on the other when needed. The linen cover opens flat and stays there. Smyth-sewn binding. Matching ribbon marker.

MADE FOR THE THOUGHTS WORTH KEEPING.
Crafted with rare onion skin paper sewn binding and linen
covers designed to soften transform and gather
character through years of writing.
The ghosting effect
The translucency of onion skin paper allows writing sketches and reflections to softly appear beneath each page creating depth, texture, and visual layering over time.
Surprisingly durable
Though incredibly thin, onion skin paper was originally designed to travel across oceans without adding weight. Strong fibers allow the pages to hold up beautifully through years of writing.
Fountain pen friendly
Designed to handle fountain pen ink beautifully, the paper resists bleeding while still preserving the soft translucency and layered ghosting that make onion skin paper so distinct.
