"As shown."

Blotter is wonderful

"I have always wanted one of these, just for the fun of it, as well as the practicality. But mostly for the fun. It doesn't disappoint - I enjoy writing with a fountain pen and now I feel quite official about it."

— CARRIE H. (5/5)

J Herbin Hand Blotter

"I was surprised at the cheap finish on an item that costs this much. There are three spots on the handle that look like the finish either didn't adhere or was never there. Functionally, it works fine. I just expected higher quality from J Herbin."

— Suzan P. (3/5)

Q&A

How is the blotter paper changed? Handle does not unscrew. Is it a snap that must be pried up?
The handle unscrews from the top. Hold the wooden base firmly and turn the handle counterclockwise to remove the top plate. Replace the blotter paper over the curved base, then reattach the top plate and tighten the handle to hold the paper securely in place.
