The Best Luxury Stationery for 2026

As well as increasing productivity and reducing mental clutter, keeping a diary can save you from social faux pas. Aunt Bertha’s birthday, your wedding anniversary, an appointment with your dental hygienist – never miss a date again with this classic A5 design in Harrods green. Inside, high-quality pages offer week-by-week organisation, a contact book and space for notes.

Reformer Pilates at 9am. Brunch with the girls at 1pm. The Wildlife Photograph Exhibition at 2.30pm. Dry-cleaning at 4pm. Charity fundraiser at 7pm. If this sounds like your usual Saturday, you need a diary. Bound in Smythson’s signature leather, this smaller design (just the right size for your Saint Laurent shoulder bag) features gilt-edged Featherweight pages that’ll give you a chic snapshot of your ever-filling social calendar.

The stationery you carry speaks volumes. Step into a meeting with this Harrods writing folder in hand – complete with an A5 notebook, dual pen holders and business card pockets –and make a statement: you’re someone who gets things done. Writing on 120 GSM paper isn’t just an aesthetic choice; it’s a power move.

There’s something uniquely satisfying about putting pen to paper. But if you work digitally, analogue note-taking might not suit your day-to-day. Unless, of course, your Moleskine notebook automatically transfers your words into digital format. Instantly share notes and drawings with colleagues, convert scribbles into (searchable) text, use the app to change the colour and thickness of your pen strokes – all with a clever notebook that recognises the strokes of your Bluetooth pen.

Walk into a boardroom and chances are there’s a Montblanc Meisterstück in attendance. It’s been the pen for 100 years, accessorising desks of heads of state and businesspeople since its debut in 1924. With this edition, the brand pays homage to Phileas Fogg’s famous adventure, drawing on the second leg of his journey from Mumbai to Yokohama. Elegantly weighty, the precious anthracite resin fountain pen features an Indian elephant cartouche on the cap, while the handcrafted 14ct-gold nib is engraved with a hot air balloon.

Favouring a softer, more feminine aesthetic, this rollerball pen introduces a new silhouette for Graf von Faber-Castell. The body – combining a handcrafted hornbeam wood barrel and 18ct-gold cap – presents a modern, floral-inspired interpretation of classic fluting. Naturally, German engineering ensures it glides across the page with ease.

“Hang on, I just need to find a pen.” Words you’ll never have to say again with this elegant pen pot on your desk. Bound in topstitched leather, it’ll serve as a stylish reminder to keep an organised workspace. Tidy desk, tidy mind.

If you’ve purchased a Porada Saffo desk, the last thing you want to do is scratch or mark its walnut surface. Offering protection and a smooth writing surface, this full-grain leather desk mat with faux suede base, finished with Aspinal of London’s signature shield rivet, measures slightly larger than A3, fitting more desks comfortably. Together with the matching pen pot and letter rack, it helps define a neat and tidy workspace.
