# Stationery
|
||||
|
||||
Domain: notebooks, pens, ink, paper, planners — UK market. This page is the entry point for all stationery content in the wiki.
|
||||
|
||||
## Core principle (from source)
|
||||
Paper weight (gsm) determines what pens work. Below 80 gsm = fountain pens ghost. 90+ gsm = everything works cleanly.

|
||||
| 1 | Leuchtturm1917 A5 Hardcover | Notebook | ~£20–25 | Best serious-use: numbered pages, index, 80 gsm, flat-bound |

|
||||
| 6 | Filofax Eco Essential A5 | Planner / binder | ~£19 | System (6-ring, swap refills yearly); 6-hole paper |
|
||||
|
||||
## Paper weights (guidance from same source)
|
||||
- 60–70 gsm: cheap pads, Moleskine — ballpoint/pencil only; fountain pens ghost
|
||||
- 80 gsm: Leuchtturm, mid-range — handles most pens; some wet-ink ghosting
|
||||
- 90 gsm: Rhodia Clairefontaine — everything cleanly, best for fountain pens
|
||||
- 100+ gsm: watercolour / premium sketching only
|
||||
|
||||
## Verdict (source's)
|
||||
Buy Leuchtturm for daily writing; Rhodia Spiral Dot for sketch/dot-grid; Parker Jotter as everyday pen; Lamy Safari if entering fountain pens; Filofax if building a long-term planner system. Premium notebooks earn their place — ~3p/day over 2 years.
