Product description
We named this one Calypso, after the sea goddess of the mythical island of Ogygia. As the sun sets over the Greek islands, the sky turns pink, the ocean deepens in colour and Calypso comes alive.
Calypso is a teal A5 notebook with 236 pages. Choose dot grid, ruled or plain pages.
The notebook begins with a simple printed bookplate for dedicating to your pal, or putting your reward and contact information. We've all got to do our bit to help lost notebooks find their way back home.
Two contents pages and numbered pages throughout allow for easy navigation. As you move through the notebook, the page numbers gradually change colour, taking you through the spectrum.
The notebook contains 100gsm smooth, fountain pen friendly paper stock with minimal show through. It's suitable for use with highlighters, rollerballs, markers, brush pens, ballpoints and ink pens, as well as graphite and coloured pencils. We've tested numerous markers including Tombow (Dual Brush, Twin Tone, Fudenosuke), Faber-Castell Pitt, Pentel Sign and Brush Pens, 20+ black brush pens and various drawing pens. We were able to use both sides of every sheet. Tougher alcohol based markers will show through more easily, for example the Windsor and Newton Promarker.
We’ve used lay flat binding so the notebook opens without forcing the spine. This binding method backlines the inner pages within the spine, leaving them free to move. The cover is bound on with front and rear hinges only.
The cover is subtly blind embossed with ‘Papersmiths’ on the back and a satisfying thumb print sized monogram to the front.

Let customers speak for us
Excuse the pun, it was a present and well received by the recipient. Caran D’ache pens are lovely to use and this one was admired by the recipient on a visit to the Brighton store. Excellent service.
Papersmiths is a gem- beautiful pens, gorgeous packaging and the sweetest personal touches. They even included a handwritten thank you card with our order. I also needed to cancel something i bought by mistake and they sorted it immediately - super attentive, quick and on it! Such a lovely experience from start to finish!
Nice flowing fineline pens, good colour.
I bought the notebooks as gifts so didn’t want to disturb the nice wrapping to look at them properly but I wanted to write a review as a compliment to the excellent service that I received. Thank you.
Literally the best notebooks in the world… getting really difficult to find stock in the UK of the ruled. Fabulous thick paper, durable covers. Ringbinding means you can flip and use both sides of paper.
I love its whimsy
New stationery is a thing of joy and the lovely packaging and note took it up a level. I bought the wrong size notebook band as I was so taken by the colour that I did not read the sizing properly. I asked if I could return it and it was all dealt with so efficiently and politely. All round happy and itching to buy more.
lovely presentation, easy to understand and get into and a brilliant exercise to make everyday a bit brighter!
I've been using The Completist planners for years. I love how flexible they are with their binding. The paper quality is top. They use G F Smith paper which is my favourite. Usually i get the undated versions from them but i loved this colour and couldn't help myself! Love it.
Just received this diary. It’s an instant hit. So chic and such a great layout. It’s now part of my evening routine taking time to reflect on the day. Love!
Absolutely love these pens. Feel lovely to hold and write beautifully. Great selection of colours.
Great quality paper, gorgeous shade of orchid pink and no plastic delivery. Very happy. Thank you
Quality to do list notebook, with lovely thick paper. Papersmiths always package it up so nicely as well. Even a small notebook purchase feels like high end luxury.
Really good quality, looks great 👍👍
Excellent, just what I needed, and nice thick, non bleed paper tops it off. Fast delivery.
