Moleskine Classic Expanded Notebook (400 pages), Softcover, Horizontal Ruled, Large Size (13cm x 21cm), Sapphire Blue, QP616EXPB20

Moleskine notebooks are the heir and successor to a legendary notebook beloved for two centuries by artists and thinkers such as Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, and Bruce Chatwin. These simple, black, rectangular notebooks with rounded corners recorded precious sketches, scribbles, stories, and ideas long before they became famous paintings and popular novels. Bruce Chatwin's favorite notebook, which he called "Moleskine," gradually became scarce in the mid-1980s and eventually disappeared entirely. In 1997, a small Milanese publisher revived the legendary notebook, choosing its nickname to perpetuate its special tradition of creativity and self-expression.

Moleskine believes that the power of handwriting is timeless and an essential expression of human civilization, a powerful act of unleashing human genius and promoting the development and sharing of knowledge through the written word. In our fast-paced, technologically advanced world, we pride ourselves on the artistry of the human hand. It's the timeless joy of putting pen to paper and letting your voice flow. We celebrate the solemn, thoughtful, and meditative act of pen sliding across a blank page. We celebrate the romance of crafting your personal story to record lifelong memories and leave a testament of unique beauty. Handwriting is both universal and deeply personal. It's a way to express your true self and connect with others in ways that are both personal and universal. Put pen to paper and let your voice flow.
