What makes good paper?
What defines a comfortable writing experience?

John does not chase speed or trends.
He values the quiet moment of taking a pen,
touching the paper,
and carefully turning thoughts and emotions into words.

A.Silky Premium 865 was created for this very moment.
By pursuing smoothness to its fullest potential,
it allows ink to flow effortlessly,
without interrupting the rhythm of thought.

John is not a specific individual.
He is portrayed as a storyteller who embodies
the quiet philosophy cultivated through
APICA’s long history of writing.

This attitude is shared by all
who take time to reflect and write.

Feel it.
A smoothness like silk.

*****************************************
良い紙とは何か。

A.Silky Premium 865は、
そんなJohnのために生まれた紙。
なめらかさを徹底的に追求し、
思考の流れを妨げない書き心地を実現しました。

The magical experience of "meeting yourself on this exact day years ago"
Some values aren't found in a rush; they gently settle over time. The multi-year diary collection (3-year, 5-year, and 10-year) from Apica (Nippon Note) serves as an elegant companion on your journey to preserve life's meaningful moments.
✨ The Essence of Multi-Year Layout: Each page represents a single day of the year, divided into sections for each year. As you write for today, you will simultaneously see your thoughts and feelings from this exact day in previous years.

🖋️ A Masterpiece of Japanese Paper: To withstand thousands of days, Nippon Note features premium Acid-free paper from the Oji Paper Group. This paper is exceptionally smooth, fade-resistant, and entirely age-defying, ensuring your ink stays pristine for generations. Traditional Japanese thread binding allows the diary to open completely flat 180° for an exquisite writing experience.
📖 Which Journey Belongs to You?
• 3-Year Diary (A5 size): Perfect for academic milestones, career transitions, or capturing your child's early years.
• 5-Year Diary (A5 size): The ideal balance for a mid-term journey to look back on major life achievements.
• 10-Year Diary (B5 size): Just a few refined lines daily, turning this journal into a cherished family heirloom over a decade.
The years and days of the week are left blank, allowing you to start your journey at any time.

As the evenings grow longer in autumn, how do you like to spend your quiet moments? ☽
Some people enjoy keeping a diary or journal, taking time to reflect and capture their thoughts. 🍁
A favorite notebook can make those moments feel even more special. ☕

Where Your Words Take Center Stage
“Apica Personal” is a long-selling classic, loved by generations of notebook users.
Designed to it features our original high-quality acid-free paper, developed in collaboration with Oji Paper for an exceptionally smooth writing experience.
Unlike acidic paper, neutral paper is less prone to discoloration and deterioration over time.
That's why you'll often find these notebooks wrapped with our signature “1000 Year Paper” tagline, a phrase that has become synonymous with the series.

The Apica Personal lineup also includes notebooks with a clean, minimalist gray cover design.
Whether you're recording ideas, meeting notes, reminders, or personal reflections, writing things down helps preserve thoughts that may one day become lasting memories.
Available in three rulings: ▪️ Ruled ▪️ 3 mm Grid ▪️ Vertical Ruled

A notebook that quietly holds the warmth and thoughts of its owner over time.
We invite you to experience it for yourself.

Note: “1000 Year Paper” is a promotional tagline and does not guarantee actual preservation for 1,000 years.

The hot summer days are here. 🌻

When the summer heat feels overwhelming, even a glimpse of a clear blue sky can bring a sense of calm and refreshment. Today, we'd like to introduce one of the colors inspired by the beauty of the Japanese sky.

SORA (Sky)
A pure, cloudless shade of blue that captures the beauty of a clear summer sky.
The cover is made with a premium textured paper designed to resemble the elegant look and feel of woven fabric.
The base paper is called "Gunjo (ultramarine)," a traditional Japanese color name referring to a rich, slightly violet-toned deep blue.

〈C.D. NOTEBOOK〉
The classical design is reminiscent of an old book cover.
It is a standard notebook that can be used in a variety of situations, regardless of purpose, generation, or gender.

May this refreshing shade of blue bring a little coolness to your day. 💙
