Luxurious writing paper and quill

mrhydeandseek

Hi all,

I am looking for quality writing paper, like parchment for instance. Is there any place in Ireland that sells good writing paper? Its for a very special project of mine. Also would there be any shop selling quills with ink sets?

I cant find it anywhere here.

Etsy.com is probably your best bet seeing as no one has popped up with an answer yet

That's a natural goose quill but if you've never used one before, they take some practise before you can write reasonably, at least in my experience.

That one has a brass nib like you'd find on a normal fountain pen, for dip ink so you still get the authentic feel.

I didn't see anything in the line of writing paper there though. You could try daintree paper on... Aungier St I think it is. They do wedding invites etc so you can probably pick up a ream of good quality high gsm paper. That or buy sheets of it in the likes of Evans down the road a bit from Jervis St, name of the street escapes me right now.

Neither of which are any use if you're outside Dublin, unless they deliver.
