Stone Paper Ruled (Lined) Executive Notebook, Black Hardcover with Leather Feel- Size 5" x 8.25" (13 cm x 21 cm), 208 Pages (Black)

It's not likely to take off as a replacement for paper at this price, but it is pretty cool as a novelty item. I only bought it because I make books by hand and I thought it would be cool to own one. It does not disappoint!

Smooth and sturdy inside and out. The best journal I’ve ever purchased. Buy it, it’s worth every Penny!

Love the feel of the cover. The pages are silky smooth. Yes, gel isn’t the best idea. I do wish there was a larger size!

Really impressed and happy with this buy. I always find it difficult to judge the quality of the cover from pictures, but am very pleased with the thickness, durability, and feel and would not be able to otherwise tell it is not genuine leather. The notebook has a pleasant heftiness to it which I like. When others pick it up, they notice the difference right away and are intrigued as to why. The paper itself provides a unique writing experience as it is very soft to the touch and allows the pen to glide more smoothly across the page. I also like that it utilizes an otherwise almost unusable product...limestone tailings and therefore eliminates the environmental footprint of conventional paper products. I know first hand from working for 14 years for limestone mining companies. The product used to make this paper is the powdery stone that is unavoidably produced as the stone is sized into the different sellable products.

I absolutely love stone paper. It makes writing fun. If you have tendon strains in your thumb or fingers this paper makes your pen glide effortlessly- bye bye strains and pain! Great gift for people who journal or who make lists or who just write alot. They will love you for buying it for them 🙂

I use this for recording notes for my D&D campaigns. It fits neatly into my traveling box with my other stuff (dice, figurine case, etc.) and has its own bookmark. The binding is sturdy and so are the pages. I couldn't rip any of the pages out. Seriously, I tugged on a page and eventually sorted to sissors. Also, stone paper! I really like that I can write down notes and such without using tree pulp.

I cannot say enough good things about this notebook. The premium build quality, vibrant color, unique "grippy" exterior, excellent value and environmentally sound! The stock photos depicting the new color do not do this notebook justice, it's a beautiful shade of green. But not only does Pictostone claim they are eco-friendly process wise but they back it up with pledging a portion of each sale to plant new trees! When was the last time you can honestly say shopping from the comfort of your own home, office, even on the go via mobile had truly made a real world difference to the planet? Choose Pictostone and make it happen :)

I love these books and the stone paper. I use them for work and they are easy to grab and go; into a meeting or site to site. The recorded versions are great for historicals records, too.
