Eri ShimatsukaHedelmäpuuA6 Size (fits Planner and Original)

This cover features a design by the textile designer and illustrator Eri Shimatsuka, who lives in Finland.



Her designs evoke the warm, gentle view toward nature that comes from spending everyday life amid Finland’s lush greenery. Hedelmäpuu is Finnish for “fruit tree,” and a fruit tree filled with fruits and nuts is the centerpiece of this design.



The first thing that pops out on this design is the cute array of fruits in green, pink, and orange. The grapes and small tree nuts are also so filled out that they seem like they could fall off the tree at any moment. The effect is fun and lively, creating a cover that exudes the feeling of the life force of trees.



The illustration is printed on a canvas fabric whose natural coloring evokes the gentleness of nature.







This design’s details, such as the leaves painted in two different shades of green and the grapes with spots of light and shade, give it a deeply expressive look.







The pocket on the back of the cover also has illustrations of green and pink fruit.







The bookmarks are brown like the trunk of a tree, and the round light-pink and green charms are reminiscent of tree nuts.







We hope your days are lively and fun when you spend them with this cover, infused with the loveliness and freshness of fruits and nuts.

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.

Color and print may vary slightly

This material is first printed or dyed and then later sewn onto the cover. While colors are designed to be consistent, there may be uneven coloring or slight shade variances between covers. This may also happen across a single cover, such as a pocket compared to the rest of the cover. In addition, on rare occasions, there may be small black or white dots visible on the print. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.

Cover may contain variations in stitching or loose lining

Due to the structure of the cover that opens flat 180 degrees, 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.
