Happy April! We had a lot of fun this month as a team! Soraya visited us and we had a team dinner that served as a mini reunion. We also got together over some delicious food to celebrate Christine's birthday this past weekend :) We miss going to our favorite local restaurants, but Neil and I have been enjoying inviting everyone over to our place for these gatherings since having Jacob.  At the beginning of the year, we announced that our goal for 2022 would be to celebrate the creativity of everyone on our team by having individual special projects that Yoseka releases with...

We are excited to introduce Laban Pen in our collections. Laban Pens was founded in Houtong, Taiwan, in 1981 by two brothers, Laban began with simple silver- and rhodium-plated fountain pens and soon expanded into more ornate and hollow-carved writing instruments. While Laban is widely regarded as a pioneer of unique pen-making techniques, the brand truly emphasizes “the original intention” of the fountain pen: an instrument held in the palm of the hand and used to express unique warmth and affection.Laban’s 325 Fountain Pen Series represents Laban’s classic design philosophy, inspired by the colors of nature, with nibs that are...

This year, one of our goals for Yoseka is to create more stationery that we love for everyone. In January, we started this by working on projects with each person on our team. It’s been really fascinating to see everyone’s projects progress and I love how each project really highlights the individual talents and creativity of each person. The first one that we’d like to share with you is Jane’s and we couldn’t be happier about how it turned out.This postcard-slash-pencil board is a collaboration with @luckyrisograph, a New York City-based printing press with roots in Taiwan, just like Yoseka!

Happy March everyone! Are you all as ready for spring as we are? We've been busy running between our storage in Ridgewood and the shop in Greenpoint, and missed last month's flat lay photo! It's a tradition we've kept going ever since we first opened in Sunnyside and we were a little shook when we realized we let last month go by without the new additions monthly photo so sorry if you missed that last month 😅  This past month, we continued to film lots of unboxing videos and Catching Up episodes for our YouTube, and added a lot of...
