Leather Hinge RHODIA No11 Cover Red

This is a leather cover for the Rhodia Bloc Memo No. 11. It is crafted from 100% Tochigi leather tanned with tannins. The glossy color, reminiscent of leather wet with water, is a characteristic of aniline-finished leather. The distinctive leather hinge is made using a unique method we have researched. After intricate cutting and shaping, each part is meticulously filed down to adjust the interlocking mechanism. The hinge offers more than just a unique appearance. It also prevents extreme deterioration of the areas that are repeatedly folded during opening and closing. Furthermore, its precise fit for the Rhodia allows for a compact size. An internal pocket on the flap provides a place to store cut-out papers. A pen holder is included. We understand that Rhodia users often have a preference for their pens, so we've made it telescopic. It accommodates slim pens for planners as well as pens up to approximately 13mm in diameter. For pens with anti-slip rubber grips, insertion and removal can be made smoother by gently pressing the base of the pen holder with your finger. To showcase the smooth operation of the leather hinge and the pen holder adjustment, we have prepared a video for you to watch.

As this item does not experience the strong stresses typical of bags or shoes, the natural oils from your hands are often sufficient for its care. In fact, be mindful of over-applying leather creams or oils. We hope you will enjoy the rich patina that develops over time with tannin-tanned leather. A Rhodia No. 11 notebook is included. Please specify your color preference (Orange, Black, or White) in the remarks section. *If no color is specified, the standard Orange will be sent. [About Tochigi Leather] You can still see the pores and blood vessel marks that are evidence of its life, and it emits a faint, pleasant aroma when brought close. "Tochigi Leather," which conveys the natural charm of genuine cowhide, is cowhide tanned into leather by Tochigi Leather Co., Ltd. (Tochigi City, Tochigi Prefecture). It is vegetable-tanned saddle leather using tannins extracted from mimosa bark, without the use of harmful chemicals. This is a top-quality cowhide tanned through a meticulous 20-step process passed down since the company's founding in 1937. The natural grain of "Tochigi Leather" is highly praised not only domestically but also by leading overseas apparel manufacturers.

At "Your Side Door," we attach the "Red Tag," the symbol of "Tochigi Leather," to works over 3,000 yen. However, all our works are made using "Tochigi Leather."
