Luxe Stationary

I'm not particularly obsessive about stationary and paper goods, though I appreciate many of the fabulous designs out there. I do though have a weakness for the uber-luxe offerings from Smythson of Bond Street and Mrs. John L. Strong.

These elephant motif correspondence cards from Smythson of Bond Street
are classic and whimsical at the same time, and feature lovely bespoke touches like envelopes hand-lined in coordinating tissue.

It might not be made of paper, but this travel wallet from Smythson is probably their most well-known product. This one, in their signature blue leather, actually gives me heart palpitations. I am forever in search of a deal on eBay.



Set of seven "Lucky 7" correspondence cards; set of eight "Cocktails"
invitations - both from Mrs. John L. Strong


This petit desk calendar, also from Mrs. John L. Strong, comes with twelve calendar cards and a gold easel, and is packaged in a beautiful wood box. At $98, it is a perfect high-end thank you gift that will be used all year long.
