Emílio de Silva Braga founded his stationery company in 1918. Four generations of his family have produced completely handmade stationery at the factory-come-shop in Prior Velho, on the outskirts of Lisbon, ever since.

The Notebooks are still produced in a handmade way. They are sewn and glued using techniques over 100 years old, the interior pages can be of various types, usually are smooth with a paper of 90gsm in cream paper. The spine and corners are crafted from cotton fabric to give it superior resistance.
