minä perhonenmemoriaA6 Size (fits Planner and Original)
minä perhonen creates timeless, all-original garment textiles that are specially dyed, embroidered, and woven to recreate hand-drawn designs.
Designer Akira Minagawa created the butterfly stamps featured on the memoria textile by hand. The design was stamped onto fabric, which was then used to create the material for this printed cover. The final design retains the charm of the lightly blurred and uneven nature of the original piece.
The slightly coarse linen material is pleasant to the touch.
The pen holders and cover interior are made with faux leather in a chic and elegant dark brown. Two dotted lace bookmarks are attached.
Each cover contains a unique arrangement of butterflies. We hope you enjoy your one-of-a-kind cover.
About minä perhonen
minä perhonen is a fashion brand created by designer Akira Minagawa.
First founded in 1995 under the name minä, and renamed "minä perhonen" in 2003. In Finnish, “minä” means “I,” and“perhonen” means “butterfly,” expressing Minagawa’s hopes to create designs as light-hearted and beautiful as a butterfly’s flapping wings.

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.
- Actual specifications may vary from listing
Each item is individually assembled and sewn by hand by a factory worker. Best efforts are made to ensure consistent sizes and specifications, but there may be slight differences.
- Color and print may vary slightly
This material is first printed or dyed and then later sewn onto the cover. While colors are designed to be consistent, there may be uneven coloring or slight shade variances between covers. This may also happen across a single cover, such as a pocket compared to the rest of the cover. In addition, on rare occasions, there may be small black or white dots visible on the print. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.
- Threads are napped and uneven
Due to the nature of this material, threads may contain uneven thickness or naps (knots and lumps in the material).
- White spots around stitching
Due to the characteristics of the print and product material, the sewing process may expose the white of the original material around the stitches.
- Print may have white spots due to texture of material
Due to the naturally-occuring naps (knots and lumps in the material), the print may contain some white spots. This is caused by originally-present naps being printed on, and these naps later coming off the cover. Please understand this is an unavoidable aspect of the all-natural material.
- Stitching may be slightly curved or bumpy
Stitching may be slightly curved or bumpy as a result of sewing together materials of various thicknesses.
- Print may contain smudges or blurs present in original art
This design is printed in several layers to retain the feel of hand-painted artwork, including any smudges or blurs. These are not a mistake during the printing process.
- Lace bookmarks may contain frays
The bookmarks of this cover use original mina perhonen lace straps. If you see any loose threads, we recommend refraining from pulling on it and instead tucking it between other woven threads.
- Cover may contain variations in stitching or loose lining
When this cover is open flat, exterior stitching areas may appear puckered and lining material may be loose.
- No outer pocket
This cover does not contain an outer pocket.
- Not for use with Cover on Cover
This cover uses thicker materials than usual, so it may not fit. Forcing it into a Cover on Cover may damage the products.
- Pen holders are rigid at first
The pen holders are rigid at first, making it difficult to insert pens. You can speed up the breaking-in process by rolling the pen holders in your hand.
- Pen holder fits pens up to 13.5 mm wide
The pen holder is designed to perfectly fit the 12.2 mm (0.48”) diameter Jetstream pen offered as a free Hobonichi Store Exclusive. Pens with certain shapes and materials may be difficult to pull through the holder. The holder can fit pens up to 13.5 mm (0.53”) in diameter.
- Inquiries about the minä perhonen collaboration covers
These Hobonichi Techo cover designs were directed by minä perhonen, but produced by Hobonichi. Inquiries about these covers cannot be answered at minä perhonen shop locations, so please contact the Hobonichi Store with any questions or concerns.
- Avoid storing in hot and humid places
Please avoid storing your product in hot, humid places or placing it atop other objects for long periods of time as this may result in lower quality and color stains.
