We've been talking about it for months and dropping hints and teasers (so sorry--we couldn't help being a little over the top about this one 😅), but now it is finally here and we are so excited for everyone to see what we have been secretly working on for the better half of a year! The Yoseka Origin Series collection includes our 由 Origin Fountain Pen, No. 01 由 Origin Ink, and Walnut Pen Tray. 由 Origin Fountain Pen on Walnut Pen Tray . No. 01 由 Origin Ink . Each product in the series is meaningful to us because it allowed us...

The Pilot Custom 74 is one of the most popular entry level gold nib pens and in this video, Soraya and I introduce what makes the Custom 74 such a great choice as a first gold nib pen. Later in the video, we show you how to fill your Custom 74 with the accompanying CON-70 converter and demonstrate line comparisons with the four available nib sizes in the US, and for even more context, the seven additional nib sizes only available in Asia. Hope you have fun watching!

You all know by now we have been working hard on our Yoseka Origin Series, but I am so happy to be divulging another Yoseka project we've been cooking up these past few months and set to release in August :) Neil and I are having a baby boy! We are so happy and excited! I’m about due for a procrastinator’s panic attack when I soon realize how close we are to August and Neil is definitely a little nervous about baby #1 (Yoseka) so we are busy making lots of plans to set up the shop as smoothly as possible for a few months down...

Happy April! This past month, in addition to all the colorful fun stationery we added, we worked on final touches on our upcoming Yoseka Origin Series. One of the three just arrived yesterday! We are super excited to share but we will keep them a secret until our launch next month 😊Another exciting announcement we made a few weeks ago— almost all of us have gotten our first doses, and by our current rate, we are looking forward to opening for browsing in June with everyone fully vaccinated.Before that, we are preparing for exciting new releases in April such as...

Traveler's Company is such a special brand to Yoseka! Join me and Soraya as we share why we love Traveler's Notebooks, give an introduction to the many different refills you can use and stick around to find your perfect TN setup based on what you love to do. If you're curious what refills I use in my current setup, I give a little tour of my TN as well. Hope this video helps you decide on your Traveler's Notebook setup!

  Hello everyone! I'm Ashley, a Yoseka team member, designer, and illustrator, who loves to document my travels and life events in watercolor. I bike to Yoseka every day - rain or shine - so I was really looking forward to the Washable Paper Notebook from Traveler's new B-Sides and Rarities series.  Since my backpack contents always get soaked after a trek through harsher weather, I was excited to put this notebook to the test. The inside paper is made from the same material as laundry paper tags, which makes it durable and water resistant. It has a nice, heavy, parchment paper texture...

Current state of our storefront - it’s getting filled with lots of boxes and different stationery 😊 And it will be getting even more crowded with our special Yoseka Origin series in the next few weeks as the May launch approaches. Thank you all so much for the support that has allowed us to work in a very safe and healthy environment. As our parents and members of the team are getting vaccinated, we are currently planning on being able to reopen safely in June. Until then, we are all making a big push towards the release of Yoseka Origin...

We were so excited when the Traveler’s team sent us a sneakpeek of TRC’s new B-Sides & Rarities collection a few weeks ago. This new line of Traveler’s Notebook refills features unique, quirky and off-the-beaten-path refills such as a Washable Paper refill, Super Lightweight Paper refill, Message Card refill, Letter Pad refill, and more special refills for you to further customize your own Traveler’s Notebook experience. The name “B-Sides & Rarities” was inspired by the A-side and B-side of vinyl records. Traveler’s explains that artists’ most popular works would often be featured on the A-side of a vinyl record, but...

In our newest video, Soraya and I take you on a tour of the different types and styles of Bande stickers we love to use, and Soraya walks you through some tips and techniques for Bande success! We demonstrate Bande sticker rolls, transfer masking tapes and more! Which is your favorite?

When we receive Yoseka Notebooks, a great percentage of them are typically damaged. We are always heartbroken to have to count the ones that are in good shape so we can put them online. This time about half of them are damaged, and we were able to put 40 of them online last night.Back in 2018, when we first made this notebook with Conifer, we spent months to finalize the details, and we didn’t really expect much. We also didn’t see that Conifer would decide to stop producing the paper in Yoseka Notebook. (More details in Q&A we did with...
