5-YEAR Cover - Hobonichi Techo

These covers are specially designed to fit the 5-Year Techo (A6 and A5) and protect the book.

Specially made as the cover of the Hobonichi 5-Year Techo, Natural and Red are made of tanned cow leather that changes colour over time as the leather ages. The covers were created to protect the book you’ll carry with you for 5 years. It will conform nicely to your hands over time, and you’ll enjoy its classic look for years to come. The front of the cover is cleanly imprinted with the name Hobonichi 5-Year Techo. Because the cover uses a firm leather, the front cover may rise from the book in the beginning due to a tight fit. Over continued use, the cover will break in to lay flat with the book. The leather’s character and colour deepens over time for a transformation that’s a joy to watch. We recommend waterproof spray and other leather care goods for users who would like to protect their covers and keep the leather clean.

In a quiet, open landscape with a beautiful view, the world of Hiroko Kubota shines with originality, beauty, and unique ideas. This time, one of Kubota’s works has been turned into a cloth cover for the Hobonichi 5-Year Techo. A cover full of tiny details to discover over its years of use, The Sea's Dream at Dawn from artist Hiroko Kubota will transport you to tranquility.
