2027 Hobonichi Hon A5 Daily Calendar | V&A Series: Vine | English Edition

This exclusive A5-sized planner was created in collaboration with the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) in London, featuring William Morris's legendary "Vine" botanical design from 1873 on its cover. The vibrant composition of ripe grape bunches and lush leaves is printed on a noble material with a canvas-like texture, faithfully preserving the lines of the original sketch and the subtle nuances of the ink. The front of the design is adorned with Morris's famous maxim embossed in gold foil: "Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful." This lightweight, hardcover binding conceals masterful, velvety Tomoe River paper and, thanks to its sewn-and-glued spine, opens perfectly flat (180 degrees), ensuring luxurious writing comfort.
