Fountain pen-friendly
Designed for writers, journalers, list-makers, daydreamers, and people with approximately seventeen thoughts happening at once.
Our A5 journals turn everyday scribbles into something worth romanticising. Available in lined, dotted, and blank page layouts, each journal is finished with luxe foiling details and paper so lovely you’ll suddenly feel the urge to get your life together for at least twenty minutes.
With thick quality paper, these journals are made for journaling, planning, sketching, note-taking, and documenting whatever strange little era you’re currently living through.
Due to the delicate nature of the material used for the foiling, the foil can tarnish after rigorous and frequent use. We encourage you to be super gentle with our foiled items, keep them away from contact with any moisture and to expect natural tarnishing over time.
All of your orders are packed with love and care by the Quirky Team and are shipped from Quirky HQ in Adelaide, South Australia.

I was unsure whether i should get one of the journal range from this shop. But here i am, got fall & sucked in to the red spell of the looks over this red journal! 😆😝 YES! It's pricy, but the quality tells it all the tales. From the faux leather cover & thickness of It's gsm pages were such a good quality! I got the dots pages & thinking want to use it as non-fiction reading journal & play a bits with stickers & washi tapes I've got 💖✨️ If you still rethink of your decision, maybe get this one on their sale selections before it's gone! 👍

Quality hardback notebooks can be difficult to find. Not here! These are top notch and I plan to purchase more.

It’s been a while since I’ve fell in love with a journal, and honestly I wish I had these for highschool. It’s so comfortable to write in, if you like quality then I’d say give them a try. The only downside is that there aren’t more styles and artwork cause I want more.

Gorgeous cover, I'm not a fan of red but it was reduced and I decided 'what the hell'. It's a lovely book; Thick pages, which I'm writing my thoughts on, words of the day, and putting my 'artwork'.

When I got my order a week ago I knew I had to leave a review. I am so happy with everything I purchased. The journal is truly stunning. You may not be able to tell from pictures, but the dark blue and light blue lines are embedded into the surface of the journal and sit slightly below it at varying depths, as do the flowers. The gold lines sit on top of the red surface so are very slightly raised. I honestly think it is very impressive how so much thought was put into the design that even the depth at which each detail sits was considered. I love how many of them look like little cutouts. The gold on the sides of the pages also does not disappoint. It's a very nice, shiny gold that goes well with the color of the journal. The journal is also fairly thick, definitely thicker than an average journal, so I know it will last me quite a while. I did get the book sleeve and the bookmark as well, which are also very nice quality. The book sleeve is thick and has a good amount of padding, and the embroidery is very good quality as well. The bookmark's tassle matches perfectly with the gold on the journal, and is also what I attached the dragon charmlet to as I do not have an e-reader but liked too much not to get. This goes for the persephone charmlet as well, which I put on the zipper of the book sleeve. Overall I am very happy with my decision and am extremely impressed by the quality of everything I got. I can tell a lot of care was put into each individual item, and like how each one stands well on its own and is nice enough to buy without the other matching items. Despite the fact they are side pieces that are intended to compliment other items, they are still worth buying on their own. I hope this review reassures anyone who was having doubts, because I can definitely say that at $20 this journal is 110% worth the price!

When I saw the red literati journal go on sale & it wouldn’t be back, I had to make an order! It is my 2nd red literati journal & it is just as nice as my 1st. Highly recommended - especially at the sale price (the sale price is a steal)!!!

Wow, not only does it look beautiful, the quality and the thickness of the pages is awesome. I will be able to use my ink pen without it bleeding through. ❤️❤️❤️

I love love LOVE all the journals I’ve bought from QC! The paper is sturdy and the perfect thickness for markers and pens. While alcohol markers will still leak through everything else is pretty much fair game! I’ve even used mine for water colours with only minimal page warp! Not bad for a journal that is not designed to be a watercolour book (though if you wanted to do that next I would buy 1000%) I’ve now bought four journals and I love them all.

Got this as a gift for my sister but it’s so stunning that I want it for myself now as well..

The journal is divine & is very satisfying to write in. The journal & the book sleeve was my first order from The Quirky Cup Collective. The order arrived quickly from Australia to the United States (within in 10 days). I wish I had ordered more journals as I have been giving myself a master class in astrology & I have been using the journal for reflections, notes, analyzing birth charts, etc .. I have completely underestimated the amount paper, journal space I need/needed for my work. I have already ordered a second journal (the same journal but in blue) as well as a pen with ink refill. .. but with how things are going, I should just order the other three color journals in black, green, & the light purple.

It’s beautiful and perfect for keeping track of my weight lifting. The ribbon works well for keeping my spot but even better for keeping my cat occupied while I write.

This journal is such beautiful quality! The pages are thick and the cover is absolutely stunning. I’ve used multiple types of pens and nothing has even come close to bleeding through yet. I will definitely be using this journal for a long time and make sure to grab another when I run out of pages!

Love both the products and the service. My Kindle DOES travel in more security and comfort than I do but bearing in mind how much I have invested in it that’s fine! Notebook is a beauty!

It's beautiful! High quality paper, the print on the outside is super clean and I love all the details!

This is a gorgeous looking notebook, with a stunning cover and ribbon. Sadly, despite being advertised as suitable for fountain pens, the paper doesn’t measure up against other quality brands. There is no bleed-through, which is great, but wetter inks broaden and feather. For someone with small handwriting and who prefers fine nibs - this is not ideal. All my writing looks wider and each letter is fuller on this paper. Shame, because it is beautiful. I’d say it’s better for rollerballs or fineliners.
