This Zippers cover is produced by Arts&Science, a brand and shop led by Sonya Park, who is also the creative director of the Hobonichi Techo Planner.
This year’s Arts&Science cover is made with Spanish goat leather with vibrant colors. The cover is treated with wax for a matte finish.
The Scarlet cover features a subdued orange that’s both gorgeous and calming.
The cover interior has pockets for storing cards, business cards, and more.
The front of the pocket is stamped with the logos of Arts&Science and Hobonichi.
The zipper pull uses the same leather as the cover and has a simple design. The metal part contains the letters A&S.
The cover also has a pen holder for storing a pen.
Over extended use, contact with the cover will cause the surface wax to wear down and present a nice, calming sheen on the leather.
This high quality cover has been painstakingly sewn in Japan. Please enjoy experiencing the texture and changes over time from the wax processing.
Arts&Science is a store and brand headed by creative director Sonya Park. The first store opened in 2003, and Arts&Science has since expanded to six locations in Tokyo, three in Kyoto, and one in development in Fukuoka.
The stores feature a wide variety of items such as original clothing, home goods designed to make your time at home more fulfilling, everyday items, and artist collections. The stores also occasionally host exhibitions and projects.
