Caran d'Ache x Redopapers

What makes writing and planning more enjoyable? Beautiful stationery that's a pleasure to use. That's what we went looking for, and we found it in Geneva.

Quality over speed

Since 1915, Caran d'Ache has made every pen and pencil in its own workshops in Geneva. No outsourcing, no shortcuts. The wood comes from certified forests, and a growing share now carries the Swiss Wood label, traceable back to the hillside it grew on.

We rescue paper offcuts and old festival banners from the bin. Caran d'Ache rescues Swiss cedar from a supply chain that used to cross the ocean for no good reason. Quality over speed, for them just as for us. Reason enough to welcome them into the shop.

From pen to pencil

We picked the pieces that best complement our journals, planners, and agendas, each for a clear reason:

The pens looks minimalistic, an original gift for anyone who still enjoys the feel of good writing tools. Refillable, with a cartridge that lasts around 8,000 metres of writing, more than double what a standard refill manages.

The pigment in these pencils lays down beautifully, even on the off-white paper of our upcycled planners. The fluo pencils even outshine a classic fluo marker. Already a favourite in our community.

We picked smart sets from the Caran d'Ache range that get you a long way with our books and planners right off the bat. Linde's personal favourite: a set of duo watercolour pencils with two colours in one pencil. Four pencils become eight colours, half the space needed in your pencil case. Water-soluble too, so a travel sketchbook becomes a watercolour kit on the go.
