Paper Series: Pale Blue-Green Weeks Hardcover Book - Techo Lineup

Paper SeriesPale Blue-GreenWeeks Hardcover Book

2024 New

The Paper Series uses unique paper by specialized paper trading company Takeo.

“Pale Blue-Green” uses Takeo’s “Miranda” paper for the cover. What looks like a plain Weeks book in beautiful mint blue is covered with a delicate powder-like glitter on the entire surface and shines gracefully depending on the light. The slightly rough touch of the paper is also appealing.

The year 2024 is foil-pressed in a classy gold color.

You could spend a sparkling year with this Weeks book’s clear color and bright shine always at your side.

When you order this Hobonichi Techo Weeks, you’ll receive a clear, adhesive corner pocket you can stick anywhere you like.

From the 2024 April-start version for the Weeks, the book uses thin and light yet durable Tomoe River S paper. The paper has supported the Hobonichi Techo for over 20 years with its special characteristics, but it’ll be undergoing an overhaul starting with the 2024 edition techos. The paper is more resistant to bleed through, lighter despite being the same thickness, and has a smoother surface by adjusting the fibers of the paper.

The Weeks book has space for writing in plans or journal entries, and it also has 69 pages of grid paper memo pages in the back (73 pages in the English edition Weeks and the April-start version). The back of the book contains informational pages, including An Interview with Myself and Seasonal Sweets to Make at Home.

The Hobonichi Techo 2024 Weeks book comes in either Japanese or English. If you love this cover, then you can pick out which language you’d like in that book.
*The English edition book only comes in January-start.

If you’d like storage space or a way to change up the look of your Weeks book, you can customize your book by pairing it with a Weeks cover.

For those seeking a Weeks book with an elegant quality

Our first “Paper Series” book was published last year in “Champagne Gold.” We noticed from its popularity that many users want something elegant, so we selected the “Pale Blue-Green” color for this edition. It is a book in a refined design, with shimmering glitter that changes its appearance depending on the angle of the light.

We hope you will thoroughly enjoy this Weeks book made of beautiful paper with a unique texture and color.

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.

Test fountain pens before regular use: The Hobonichi Techo's Tomoe River / Tomoe River S paper is designed to prevent bleed-through, but some fountain pens and water-based ink pens are not compatible with this paper. When switching to a new pen, we recommend testing the pen somewhere in the book, such as the back memo pages, to see if the ink bleeds through or takes an especially long time to dry.
Cover corners are slightly bumpy and shiny: The corners of the cover contain light traces of press marks, shines, and lumps. This is an unavoidable part of the manufacturing process.
Coloring may stain other objects: The dye in the cover may stain other objects if it rubs against or sticks to them, especially if the cover is wet from water or sweat from your hands. Please store with care.
Imprinted year numbers may peel: The numbers of the year are stamped onto the cover in metallic or other colored leaf, so strong rubbing or everyday use may cause the numbers to peel off.
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.
About the cover material: The cover material is made with paper and is delicate. Please avoid getting the material wet. If you’re concerned about friction against the material, we recommend using a Clear Cover. Alternatively, we recommend storing it in a pouch or case when taking it out with you.
