    Persian calligraphy is done with reed pens and the special ink on some kind of fine, semi-glossy paper on which the pen can move without difficulty and without having the ink scattered. The ready papers also come with some decorative borders like the one in this image:

    (I'm still considered a new user who can't post links here...)

    I've checked a few art shops in St. Stephen's Green shopping center and so on, but haven't found anything similar. Any idea where I could get this?

    I tried photo paper and that was no help either.

    I don't think the Art & Hobby shop is Stephen's Green is that big. Did you ring around to others? I saw some calligraphy sets in the one in Jervis Street only the other day. They're pretty big, maybe you could give them a ring.
