This is a premium artisan writing set by artist Makoto Kagoshima, available exclusively through Chariots on Fire. This collection transforms daily correspondence into an extension of ceramic art appreciation, designed and produced with meticulous attention to detail.
Complimentary shipping from Venice, California.
Bring the expressive artistry of Makoto Kagoshima into your personal notes. This set contains three individual writing pads, each highlighting a different hand-etched ceramic plate illustration on the cover. Inside, a single, delicate illustration of a lucky ladybug moves dynamically across the collection, shifting to a completely unique position on every single page. Because each sheet is hand-shuffled before binding, the ladybug appears unexpectedly as you write—a small, cheerful detail meant to bring a bit of luck and delight to your everyday correspondence.
