Product Features

1. Inner Page Material

The A5 Portable Sketchbook features 160g heavyweight sketch paper—a key advantage that sets it apart from standard, thinner papers.

With a weight of 160g, this paper far exceeds the common 80–100g art papers found on the market. It is sturdy and substantial, perfectly capable of handling a wide range of media—including graphite pencils, charcoal, and colored pencils.

It boasts exceptional durability; even after being erased 30 times, the paper remains free of pilling or damage.

The paper's surface features a fine, balanced texture that effectively grips graphite to prevent slippage while ensuring smooth, fluid lines. This makes it easy for beginners to control their strokes, while allowing professional artists to render intricate details with precision.

2. Product Specifications

Measuring 21 × 14.5 cm, this sketchbook features a portable A5 format that fits easily into backpacks or art bags, allowing you to capture inspiration whenever and wherever it strikes.

With a generous capacity of 60 sheets, it meets the demands of long-term sketching and practice sessions, eliminating the need to frequently switch sketchbooks.

The spiral-bound design allows the book to lay completely flat at 180 degrees, ensuring an unobstructed drawing surface. Page-turning is smooth and comfortable—free of any awkward resistance—significantly enhancing the overall creative experience.

It truly embodies the perfect blend of aesthetic appeal, performance, and practicality.
