Desk Therapy: 5 Calm & Minimalist Stationery Picks
Calm your space with five minimalist stationery picks from The Journal Shop. Simple, tactile tools for clearer thinking, gentler writing, and a slower kind of productivity.
Say hello to the Drehgriffel Nr. 1 — the pen that looks like it just stepped out of the 1920s, but writes like a dream in 2025. With its award-winning design and satisfyingly tactile twist mechanism, this Leuchtturm1917 ballpoint is a fusion of vintage charm and modern engineering.

Available in a range of colours to match your favourite Leuchtturm1917 notebook, naturally.
What Makes It Work So Well
• Award-Winning Design: Retro-inspired silhouette with modern construction.
• Built to Last: Milled aluminium and brass body, refillable with ISO-certified ink.
• Smooth Operator: Twist-action mechanism with medium line strength and Royal Blue ink as standard.
