HOBONICHI TECHO 2018

    WEB SHOP ONLY

    Arts&ScienceArgillaA6 Size (fits Planner and Original)

    This simple cover made with soft, quality leather is produced by Arts&Science, a brand lead by Sonya Park, who is also the creative director of the Hobonichi Techo Planner. Tanned in Italy, this leather enchants with intense color. Argilla, meaning clay in Italian, is a warm light gray with a beige tint.



    This leather is graceful, yet delicate. It requires attention from a master artisan in each of the cutting and sewing procedure. As such, this leather was entrusted to the hands of highly-skilled Japanese artisans who work with great precision and care to birth the elegant, richly pigmented cover.

    Three-tiered key motif logo of Arts&Science is engraved on the front cover.

    A large pocket is on the back cover. Both logos of Arts&Science and Hobonichi are engraved.

    A simple bookmark is threaded. Hook the pen clip to the pen holder to put it away.



    As you use the Techo in your daily life, the leather will inevitably become scratched and marked. Cherish the marks as enrichments that make the cover more of your own.

    *A selection of covers will also be available exclusively at Arts&Science shops. Details coming early September.

    Please Read Before You Buy

    In order to provide you with the most satisfaction for your product, we've compiled a list of warnings, potential issues, and tips to keep in mind for this particular product. Please be sure to read this information carefully before placing your order.

    This product uses delicate leather that accentuates the natural qualities of the material


    There may be unavoidable marks in the leather that occurred during the manufacturing process. There also may be original imperfections visible on the surface of the leather, such as wrinkles, scratches, stains, or vein marks. We ask for your understanding for these naturally-occurring characteristics of genuine leather, and hope you enjoy the material as these imperfections come to stand out less over time.

    Leather coloring stains

    Dyed leather products tend to leave stains. Please be careful not to allow the leather to adhere or rub against other objects such as clothing or other belongings, especially if the cover is wet from water or sweat from your hands.

    Color may vary slightly based on viewing screen

    The color of the product may be slightly different in actuality than compared to how it appeared on a computer or smartphone screen.

    Immediately dry cover if it gets wet

    Immediately dab your cover with a dry cloth if it gets wet. Avoid drying it with high temperatures, and place it in a well-ventilated place in the shade.

    Avoid storing in hot and humid places

    Please avoid storing your bag in hot, humid places or placing it atop other objects for long periods of time as this may result in lower product quality and color stains. Please use caution when storing.
