Think it through, on paper.
Slateforth makes considered stationery for people who still like to write things down: smooth fountain pens, notebooks that don't bleed, leather covers and small brass details for a desk you enjoy sitting at.
Tools for thinking.
A few favourites from the range. Open any item for details and send an enquiry. There's no checkout: we'll confirm stock, options and delivery within one business day.
No. 01Forth Fountain Pen
A balanced resin fountain pen with a smooth steel nib. It's heavy enough to feel good in the hand and light enough for long letters.
No. 04Forth A5 Notebook
Our signature notebook: 192 pages of smooth, fountain-pen-friendly paper, lay-flat binding and a cloth cover in four colours.
No. 05Leather Journal Cover
A vegetable-tanned leather cover that fits any Forth A5 notebook. It darkens beautifully with every year you carry it.
No. 07Brass Clip & Tack Tin
Solid brass paper clips and drawing pins in a slide-top tin. The small, satisfying details of a well-kept desk.
Small range. Good paper. No waste.
Ink-tested paper
Every notebook is tested with fountain pens, gel pens and pencils before it goes on sale, so there's no bleed and no feathering.
Refill, don't replace
Converters, refills and spare parts are available for every pen, and our leather cover takes any Forth notebook.
Made to be used
No limited-edition hype. Just honest tools priced for everyday writing, not for a display shelf.
From a clean slate, going forth.
Before paper was cheap, children learned to write on slates: write, wipe, try again. We love that idea of a clean start, and of putting ideas down and moving forward with them. That's what Slateforth is for.
We're a small studio of writers, planners and list-makers. We design a deliberately short range of stationery, test it hard and help each customer choose the right pen, paper or gift, one conversation at a time.

"Finally, a notebook my fountain pen doesn't bleed through. I've filled two already and ordered a third in the pencil-yellow cover."
"I asked which nib to get for small handwriting and got a thoughtful, personal answer within hours. The EF was the perfect choice."
"We ordered forty notebooks and pens as team gifts. Everyone still uses them months later, which says everything."
