Elevate your correspondence with the TAKEO PAPER Dressco Letter Pad — Strathmore Writing Laid. Created by TAKEO under its refined Dressco label—a line designed around the philosophy of treating fine stationery with the same intimate care as wearing tailored clothing—this letter pad combines timeless elegance with exceptional tactile performance.
Bound under a textured Sagan GA-FS White cover with elegant foil-stamped lettering, the interior features Strathmore Writing Laid N in Silk White. Crafted with a cotton linter pulp blend, the paper has a soft, luxurious feel and an attractive laid (woven) texture visible in the light alongside a sophisticated watermark.

Each pad includes 10 blank sheets and a removable ruled guide sheet to keep your writing straight without marring the pristine appearance of the paper.

【ABOUT THE BRAND】
Founded in Tokyo, Japan, in 1899, TAKEO is a legendary paper house that has spent over a century expanding the cultural, technical, and tactile boundaries of paper. Widely recognised as the global pioneer of "Fine Paper" (ファインペーパー), the company focuses entirely on creating high-grade, specialized printing substrates that blend rich sensory elements like unique textures, custom colourways, and intricate patterns. Operating at the intersection of graphic design, traditional craftsmanship, and industrial technology, TAKEO treats paper not merely as a blank recording surface, but as a vital physical medium meant to stimulate human emotion and elevate artistic expression.
Through their dedicated stationery line, TAKEO PAPER PRODUCTS, the brand transforms raw mill artistry into luxury functional tools for the desk, specializing in ultra-premium notebooks, custom envelope packs, and structural folder systems. They are celebrated for revolutionary proprietary sheets like Pachica—a paper that turns beautifully translucent when heat-stamped—and Tant Select with its delicate linen textures. Highly favored by global designers, calligraphers, and bookmakers, TAKEO provides the ultimate fountain-pen-friendly canvas for those who appreciate the natural beauty and structural precision of elite Japanese paper craft.
