Stationery Gift Sets have become something of a Mark+Fold speciality.
While a simple Notebook or Diary makes a great gift on its own (all those blank pages full of potential), there is something extra magical about a stationery set.
It’s the assembly of things that is just irresistibly satisfying. It plays into our collective love of things organised neatly and that 'new term' feeling of being well-equipped for what lies ahead. Our sets always start with the Mark+Fold classics: a Notebook or Diary. Then you’ll need something to write with, plus a few practical and pleasing little extras that just make you smile as you sit down at your desk.
“I love creating our gift sets," says Mark+Fold founder and creative director Amy. "It's something I do sort of absent-mindedly, just arranging things that go well together. So when we decide to create a Gift Box around a particular item, I feel quite inspired by what I could put with it, and how we can create a little assortment that will just look really tempting and inspiring to people. It’s kind of become a bit of an art form for us at Mark+Fold and we all look forward to the photoshoots where we get to do the new Gift Boxes. This summer we had a lot of fun with all these new ones."
For 2027, we've kept the favourites unchanged, and made some fun new additions to the line-up to give you lots of options — whether you're buying a gift for yourself or for a special stationery lover in your life.
Includes the Classic Notebook with thread-sewn binding and 120gsm fountain pen friendly paper, plus a Blackwing pencil, Triangle Eraser and Mark+Fold's all-time best-seller, the Brass Page Markers!

Stationery Gift Sets: your favourites unchanged
For the 2027 line-up we have kept some old favourites just the same, like the
Notebook Gift Box which makes a brilliant option under £50.
The Ultimate Gift Box has had a small upgrade, with the addition of a Lamy Ballpoint Pen. We felt that a gorgeous pen was an important addition if you were really setting up yourself, or a lucky loved-one, for a dreamy start to the new year with a desk full of new stationery.
Ultimate Gift Box
£195-£210 (price varies depending on Diary selection)
Our most covetable set includes the best of the Mark+Fold range, designed to really delight the stationery lover in your life with everything they could wish for: a Diary for the New Year, a layflat Classic Notebook and a desktop Planner Pad. Plus our most luxurious desk objects: the Brass Paperweight, Brass Paperclips, Brass Page Markers, Blackwing Pencil and Eraser. And a new addition this year is the Lamy Ballpoint Pen.

Stationery Gift Sets: What's new for 2027
We’ve gone to town this year on our Diary Gift Boxes, with a special set around each of them, so there’s a lot more variety and satisfying little colour combinations. So as well as the rich combination of the
2027 Flint Diary and lots of warm brass obkects, we have one built around the
2027 Sand Special Edition, which has a calming set of neutrals and crisp whites. This is a great one for a minimalist. Then were have a blue set with the Blue Special Edition, but here we’ve really gone for it with the blue colour coordination, so you can have a whole matching set of desk items to go with your Diary.
Featuring our 2027 Special Edition Diary in Blue (made in Cumbria from used coffee cups), plus a Lamy Ballpoint Pen, Black Ruler Washi Tape and a Black Origami Eraser from Japan.
Featuring our 2027 Diary Special Edition Sand with blind embossed '2027' and Week planner Pad (printed in Scotland), plus a Blackwing Natural Pencil, White Washi Tape and a White Origami Eraser from Japan.
New Notebook Gift Sets
Our
Margo Selby Set (£35) is inspired by the very geometric patterns of Margo's Shuttle II artwork, the set includes our Triangle Eraser and Blue Grid Washi, picking out the graphic lines and grids in the original artwork.
Includes our limited edition Margo Selby Shuttle II Notebook (printed and bound in the UK), featuring a crop of the original artwork which has been exhibited in the Saatchi Gallery. The set also features a selection of graphic grids and geometric shapes to compliment Margo's graphic artwork, which was originally created as a woven artwork on a traditional loom.
