Desk Therapy: 5 Calm & Minimalist Stationery Picks
Calm your space with five minimalist stationery picks from The Journal Shop. Simple, tactile tools for clearer thinking, gentler writing, and a slower kind of productivity.
A colouring pencil set with a cult following and a silver twist—Blackwing Colors are what happens when craftsmanship and creativity have a particularly inspired afternoon together. Crafted from Californian incense-cedar and finished with a smooth Japanese wax core, these premium colouring pencils offer a richly pigmented glide that’s a joy on the page and positively smug in the hand.
Each pencil features Blackwing’s signature silver ferrule and a rather clever replaceable sand eraser—ideal for those moments when your magenta sunset goes slightly rogue. The semi-hex barrel sits comfortably between fingers, whether you’re a meticulous illustrator or an enthusiastic doodler.
Designed with You (and Your Ideas) in Mind
Exceptionally Smooth Colour: Soft Japanese wax core for seamless blending and rich, consistent pigment.
Thoughtfully Crafted Feel: Genuine incense-cedar body with a semi-hexagonal shape for all-day comfort.
Signature Touches: Iconic silver ferrule paired with a unique sand eraser for precise corrections on coloured work.
