They remind me of my time in Paris
I was tickled pink to see Rhodia in Lovemarks, smiles all over the place. Those little gridded pads were my first buy when I arrived for my first trip to Paris in 1984, oh gods I adore them as well, the paper, the feel and the fact they remind me of my time in Paris. I remember seeing people writing in these gridded pads and being curious, as in Australia we only used this sort of paper for technical/maths work. I love "different" and these really take me back to a most incredible year! Love ya Rhodia.

Totally knocked by the quality
What can I say? For years I read about Rhodia before I ordered my first pads. After all paper is just...paper. And I had managed to become a Medical Doctor without Rhodia. But I was wrong. I was totally knocked by the quality, the appearance and the style. Now I have a lot of Rhodia pads in different sizes and with different rulings. I always have the orange pads with me all the time, both in my professional life and private. Rhodia and Clairefontaine vellum paper are the only types of paper that is 100 % suitable for my wet fountain pens. Try Rhodia! After that you will never ever use any other kind of writing paper. I promise...

Classic orange bound pads
Classic orange bound pads. Graph or ruled, archival or not, these pad are awesome. Rhodia has been made by Clairefontaine, located in the Vosges region of France, for many years. Clairefontaine was established in 1863 on the site of a 16th century paper mill and is currently the only manufacturer making its own paper for its own products. Clairefontaine only buys pulp from sustainable forests that are certified according to recognized international standards (PEFC, FSC, etc.) These certifications also ensure that endangered wildlife habitat is protected, worker health and safety laws are kept, and the rights of indigenous communities are respected. All Clairefontaine paper is recyclable and biodegradable.
