About

Paper still works.

Slate & Ink is built on one observation: things you write down get decided. A screen is faster, but paper is where thinking actually happens.

So we make diaries, notebooks, notepads and gift sets for people who still reach for a pen — professionals, students, founders, teams, and anyone who likes a desk that looks like someone works at it. Everything is section sewn so it opens flat, printed on uncoated FSC paper that takes ink without arguing, and made in one colour at a time so the object is the loudest thing in the room.

The brand itself stays black, white and grey on purpose. Collections change; the identity does not. This year the paper is loud. Next year it might be quiet. Either way the logo is not going to compete with it.

Paper

100 gsm, uncoated

FSC certified. Low bleed, low show-through, no shine under an office light.

Binding

Section sewn

Signatures stitched, not glued. It opens flat on day one and on day 300.

Colour

One at a time

Seven this season. The interface stays out of the way so the products do not have to.

Made

In India

Printed and bound by people we have met, shipped worldwide.

The practical part.

The range is pre-production. Nothing ships yet, so there is no shipping table to publish — and we would rather leave this blank than invent one. Samples can be produced ahead of a full run.
Thirty days, unused, in the original box, and we will not interrogate you about it. We pay return shipping on anything that arrives damaged or wrong. Personalised and corporate orders are not returnable.

Does it take a fountain pen? The A5 books are 90 gsm natural off-white, the A6 and pocket 80 gsm. A very wet nib will show through slightly.

Is the planner dated? No. The Weekly Planner is undated, so it starts the day you start it. Its interior layout is still in development.

Can I get one colour for a whole team? Yes, from 1,000 pieces. Corporate gifting.

Do you restock sold-out colours? Usually. Collections are seasonal, so some colours retire.
