Jacques Herbin - Ref 25600T - Blotter Pad Refill Papers (Pack of 10) - Pink, 240gsm, 4.5 x 12cm in Size - Absorbant & Porous - Suitable For Use With Blotting Pad 25000T

This blotter paper has the right thickness and texture. I is larger than my ink blotters but I will still use the sheets separately.

I recently got into fountain pens and find that I enjoy a fountain pen rather than a ball point pen, however, it is necessary to have a blotter to prevent smearing. I have half sheets of blotting paper but they are large and cumbersome. I got this J. Herbin Rocker Style blotter and it's perfect! It is a small tool so I can get it into tight corners and it conveniently fits into several storage spaces in my bill desk. The handle screws off so it is possible to replace the blotting paper. It is a necessary part of my desk acoutrements and I couldn't do without it. Also, mine is in a very nice cherry finish. It looks like quality and I always enjoy reaching for it and using it. I can highly recommend the J. Herbin Rocker Style Desk Wood Ink Blotter!

This is supposed to be blotting paper. It has about the same absorbance as ordinary paper - In other words it is "Unfit for purpose". Utterly useless, regretfully.

Cosa dire ... un salto nel passato ma molto utile

As the screw cannot be tightened snugly to the wood, the folded edge of the paper keeps slipping out. You can see from the photo there’s a gap between the 2 pieces of wood. So I used a washi tape to secure the paper to the wood surface. For this price I wish they had paid attention to such detail.
