The “Group Eleven*” Field Notes Quarterly limited edition gets its name from the position of the elements copper, silver, and gold in the Periodic Table. Three standard Dot-Graph Memo Books each represent one of the three precious metals and features a cover stamped in metallic hot-foil with matched staples, ink, and rare gilded page edges. Playing the shimmering colors of these three “native metals” off of the elegant white covers delivers a striking yet unpretentious look making for a tasteful gift, to another or yourself.
Brand new, direct from Field Notes, USA.

* Group Eleven includes a fourth element: roentgenium. Its most stable isotope, roentgenium-281, is rarely synthesized and it decays via spontaneous fission in about 26 seconds, which created insurmountable production hassles for a mid-sized stationery manufacturer.
