The Coupeville Paper Collection. A Story 25 Years in the Making
On a recent visit to Bainbridge Island, I discovered a small shop—Jan McGregor Studios—filled with Japanese antiques and treasures. Tucked among them were rare sheets of 25-year-old Chiyogami paper, purchased in Tokyo and lovingly preserved ever since.
With some hesitation, Jan graciously allowed me to purchase her entire Chiyogami Paper collection, and in return, I promised to give them new life through my notebooks.
Now part of my personal archive, these papers—known in the studio as Coupeville Paper—carry history, beauty, and meaning. This design features soaring white cranes with gold accents over a richly layered landscape of bronze, black, and ochre, paired with high-gloss black Japanese book cloth.
Only a handful of B5 and A5 notebooks were made. A rare gift—for those who write with intention.

This notebook is a total sensory delight and is really more art than a notebook. It's gorgeous to look at. The feel of the paper is unlike any I have ever experienced. Writing in it is next level. Not only is this notebook beautifully bound, but the care with which it was wrapped and sent to me was just a lovely experience as well. Total win on all levels.
