Hobonichi Folder X 2 [Yumi Kitagishi: Little Gifts] A5

This set of 2 folders fits perfectly into the pockets of A5 size Hobonichi Techo covers. Two designs by illustrator Yumi Kitagishi were chosen for the set of 2.

The first folder matches the 2024 cover Little Gifts. It shows an array of carefully drawn illustrations of items that Kitagishi cherishes. You can find all kinds of sparkling treasures across the design, including a seal snow globe, a clasp pouch with a face, a cat stamp, and a rose tea bag.

The second folder is from the 2024 Weeks book Take a Look. The design lines up various pieces of artwork in frames. From cats, crocodiles, dogs to seals, all the animals spruced up and looking this way are charming and have a look you’ll never grow tired of. We chose a smokey blue for the background.

This folder set allows you to have Kitagishi’s pieces of art by your side. The folders can store receipts, clippings, and other items to help organise your desk, or carry tickets and other items you want to keep portable and accessible.
