About Silvine Originals

The Silvine Originals collection celebrates a true British icon in the world of notebooks. Don’t worry if you don’t immediately recognise the name - you’ll remember our look. You may remember the classic notebook - a trusted favourite amongst carpenters, builders, designers, butchers and shopkeepers. Hidden in the depths of the Silvine archive, we found samples of these incredible books from across the years. That was when we decided to pay homage to what these books have stood for over the decades. They are engineered to perfectly meet the needs of those who use them. This is when Silvine Originals was born. Each one is made in the same factory using machinery that has been making our books for six generations. Of course, times have changed and so have our processes, but our Silvine Originals collection still retains everything that made them so iconic. From perforated pages to hand-finished binding for extra durability, we put in all the extra effort to ensure that you enjoy a high-quality product. We are nestled among the narrow streets and stone-built terraces of Otley - a small market town straddling the border of North and West Yorkshire. British attitudes have always been one of enthusiasm, innovation and endeavour. Since we set our first presses running, we have always lived by this ethos. We’re proud of our heritage.Read their story
