Malhia KentCiel TweedA5 Size (fits Cousin)

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 the tweed fabric "Ciel Tweed," as it has a blue base and a gradation intertwined with delicate threads in pink, orange, yellow and purple, reminiscent of a rainbow across the sky.







Look closely and you’ll be able to see all the different kinds of threads, from those that sparkle, those that have gradation, those that are thin but color pigmentation accenting the look, those with a washi-like texture, to those that change their width. The threads that compose this one piece of fabric all have unique charms that you’ll never grow tired of looking at.







The zipper pull is adorned with a thick, light blue 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.

Charming fabrics created by Malhia Kent

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.

About Malhia Kent

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.

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.

Pattern alignment varies by product

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.

Outer material frays easily

Threads on the outer material may fray if they catch on sharp objects or are tugged too strongly, so please handle with care.

Plaid design may not be straight

Some products may have a design that is not perfectly straight. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.

Interior leather may contain preexisting wrinkles and marks

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.

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.

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.

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.
