Clairefontaine has been making exceptional paper in France since 1858. Rooted in the Vosges mountains where papermaking traditions run centuries deep, the brand became synonymous with smooth, high-quality paper that fountain pen lovers and artists trust.

What sets Clairefontaine apart is vertical integration—they're the only major European stationery brand that manufactures its own paper in-house, controlling quality from pulp to finished product. Their signature 90 g/m² notebook paper became a staple in French schools and spread worldwide. Today, Clairefontaine offers notebooks, drawing pads, art papers, and office supplies—all built on that same commitment to quality paper. Smooth writing, reliable performance, French craftsmanship.
