Would this paper be suitable for watercolours?

I'm no artist, sadly. All I can say is that the paper is extremely absorbent. I usually use a fountain pen and there is considerable "feathering". I don't know whether this is desirable for water colours or not!

Is the paper plain (unlined)?

Hi. Yes the paper is unlined. It is hantrade elephant dung paper. There should be an image of the inside of the book? Thanks Mark

What’s the best pen to use wit this journal for writing?

Thaks for the message, the best pen to use on this paper is a biro or gel pen. Ink pens should work as well, but as the paper is handmade there may be some slight bleeding.

What is used for the metallic elephant printed on the front cover ?

Hi, thank you for your question, the elephant is made from brass. I hope that helps. Regards, Mark
