The Hobonichi 5-Year Techo keeps five years of diary entries in one book. This is the gift edition: the A6 book, about the size of a paperback, an embroidered cover made only for this set, and a box to keep them in. Usually only available in Japan, we've got a limited edition run of this gift set!

Every spread gives the same date in 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030 and 2031 down the left page, with the right page left free. Come 2031 you can read back what you were doing on this day in each of the five years.

Why people love it
• The linen cover is machine embroidered with iyo okumi's garden of flowers and animals, raised and textured under your fingers, with a pale tassel bookmark hanging from it
• 752 pages of Tomoe River paper, thin and smooth, thread stitched so the book opens flat
• A 3.7 mm grid printed in light grey on cream paper, clear to write on and calm to look at
• A pencil board and the artist's card come in a turquoise box that closes up looking like a book

The printing is Japanese and the writing space is a plain grid.
