Kunisawa: Where Heritage Meets Precision

Kunisawa is a premium stationery line by Kawachiya, a small family owned Tokyo-based printing company with over 150 years of craftsmanship rooted in paper making, letterpress, and bespoke print techniques.

From Discovery to Design

The relationship between our brands began in the summer of 2017. Ink+Volt is proud to be the first retailer in the United States to carry the renowned Kunisawa line. In 2019 we launched our first collaboration project, the Executive Notebook.
