Bojagi Gift Wrap (reusable)
$9.00
Limit 5 per order

In Korea, a bojagi is a traditional square cloth used to wrap a gift for someone truly special. It is a way to show utmost care and respect.

This sheer navy organza, reminiscent of the delicate inner lining of a traditional hanbok (Korean dress), holds a soft sheen and ties beautifully. You tie it once, and the person who opens it receives both the gift and the care woven into the cloth.

It fits a single journal, the set of three, a bottle, or a book of your own. It works for any gift, not only mine.

Gwangmok Pouch
$15.00

The pouch is the wrap for anyone who would rather not tie a knot. The journal slides in, the drawstring pulls closed, and the gift is ready.

When the journal comes out, the pouch stays: in the bag, in the drawer, in the suitcase.

The Quiet Ink Slow-Writing Journal, Vol. 2 Be Still
from $30.00

For the evenings when you would like to put your phone down and simply be with yourself.

Vol. 2 Be Still holds thirty-two passages, and its pages are slower than the first volume. They are about knowing yourself, having enough, and letting go of what was never yours to keep: Marcus Aurelius on the fountain within, Pascal on sitting quietly alone, Epicurus on wanting what you have.

There is no prompt to answer and no streak to keep. Read the passage, copy it in your own hand, and close the book. The page is already half full. You only need to bring a pen.
