It's safe to say that old-school stationery is enjoying a renaissance. In a tech-obsessed age, there's something sentimental about the simple act of turning a fresh page and putting pen to paper. Beautiful pens, notebooks and desk accessories offer an opportunity to rediscover the intention and luxury of analogue communication: Zoom calls, emails and instant messages simply don't have that same personalised feel. So, whether you're finally planning your return to the office or still working from home for the foreseeable, it's well worth stocking up on luxury stationery that will elevate your workspace and make you more organised in the process. Below are some items we've been loving recently.

Café Leather A5 Leather Notebook

Handcrafted in Spain from sustainably sourced vegetable tanned leather, this elegant notebook from Café Leather oozes luxury. The recycled paper inside can be swapped or expanded as the notebook fills up and the leather cover will maintain its premium quality over the years, so you're guaranteed a truly special desk addition that will stand the test of time.

Carl Friedrik Desk Mat

Spruce up your workstation with Carl Friedrik's sleek and stylish desk mat. Carefully crafted from vegetable-tanned Vachetta leather, it's designed to develop a unique patina over time. Choose from three elegant hues: Chocolate, Cognac or Black.

Soho Home Hadley Pocket Size Journal

The perfect size for slipping into a bag and carrying with you on the go, this pocket size journal from Soho Home is compact yet perfectly capable. With a saffiano leather cover, it's a sophisticated item of stationery that you'll feel smug about whipping out in work meetings.
