This is a zippers type cover that lavishly uses fabric by renowned fancy tweed maker Malhia Kent. The gorgeous, eye-catching tweed intertwines threads in various materials and colors to create a beautiful look.
We named this fabric with a navy and red base intertwined with white and beige bold threads as Tricolore Tweed, after the area in France where Malhia Kent was born.
Look closely and you’ll be able to see all the different kinds of thread, from those that sparkle, those with a washi-like texture, to those that change their width. The threads that compose this one piece of fabric all have their own charm that you’ll never grow tired of looking at.
The zipper pull is adorned with a thick, navy grosgrain ribbon. As well as it acts as an accent, you can put your hand through the ribbon to hold the cover like a clutch bag.
Because the cover uses a tweed with a timeless quality, we chose natural leather for the interior so that you will be able to enjoy the cover for a long time. We hope you enjoy it as the leather matures and grows a sheen. It comes with one bookmark using the same natural leather. The zippered pocket on the interior is perfect for storing small items like coins.
The pen hook is designed to hold a pen by its clip.
Malhia Kent’s shop is located in the center of Paris, France. The shop is filled with unique threads and fabrics created from those threads.
People who visit the shop are generally surprised that this charming, intricate fabric is made with a simple loom that has been passed down.
It requires a lot of technique to create this tweed that combines threads in various thicknesses and textures. We hope you fully enjoy the handwork that requires a lot of effort to create.
Fabric maker, founded in 1958. Founder Malhia Kent was born in Paris. In her 20s, while studying law, she came across a handloom at an antique shop. Buying it on a whim, she taught herself to use it by trial and error, without any knowledge of textiles. Eventually she created a spotted “fancy tweed” textile that made its debut for a high-end European brand, and went on to create tweed for several brands. After her death, Kent’s designs and vision have been carried on.

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.
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.
The patterned fabric has not been aligned to a specific layout, so the placement of each design will vary by product. The product will not be an exact replica of the one in the product photographs.
The interior uses tanned leather that may have imperfections visible on the surface, such as wrinkles, scratches, stains, or vein marks. We ask for your understanding for these naturally occurring characteristics of genuine leather.
Threads on the outer material may fray if they catch on sharp objects or are tugged too strongly, so please handle with care.
Some products may have a design that is not perfectly straight. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.
This pen holder works by holding the clip of a pen. Certain pen sizes may make it difficult to close the cover zipper.
When this cover is open flat, exterior stitching areas may appear puckered and lining material may be loose.
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.
