TRAVELER'S notebook STAR EDITION accesories

In light of the previous Customize! theme supporting the 5th year Anniversary of the regular size TRAVELER'S notebook in 2011, Midori will lanuch a entire accesories series to accompany this years STAR EDITION TRAVELER'S notebook.

The Limited leather cover in camel has a stamped logo in commemoration of this editions collaboration with the "STAR" ferry in Hong Kong. The notebook will hold the history of this Ferry and includes a route map as well as an actual coupon for the Star Ferry that still runs in Hong Kong between Kowloon Peninsula and Victoria Harbour.

The range will hold two charms. The Brass Plate is perfect to tie around the (horizontal) elastic band, whereas the Life Buoy is perfect to attach to the cotton cord that can be used as a page marker in your TRAVELER'S notebook.

The Brass Plate charm has the name of the STAR Ferry and the TRAVELER'S STAR engraved on it.

The Life Buoy is a characteristic life buoy made of tin, of the same material as the tin clasp.

The set of BRASS Clips contains 4 clips, the largest being the Star Ferry boat. The other three are similar to the Midori BRASS Numbered Clips, with a life buoy, star and anchor instead of numbers.

The Limited BRASS Ballpen is made with a green painted body. This color is the main and famed color of the STAR ferry boats. The STAR EDITION Ballpen also features vintage logo's of the TSAR Ferry and the "TRAVELER'S STAR". Similar to the white or brown painted BRASS writingtools, when the green painted surface will scratch, its surface texture will change and the underlying brass body will become more and more apparent.

The success piece of the previous limited edition series was the stamp and this STAR EDITION stamp consists of a green wooden handle, reminiscent of the interior and exterior of a STAR ferry boat.

The eleven stickers in the TRAVELER'S STAR Edition package have a nice vintage style.

New additions to Midori TRAVELER'S notebook range are Kamoi's Masking Tape in the TRAVELER'S STAR EDITION feeling.

The Masking Tape <S> features the TRAVELER'S STAR cruising the Victoria Harbour.

The Masking Tape <M> is similar to the original design of STAR ferry tickets.

The TRAVELER'S notebook STAR EDITION and its accesories range are available in stores from mid-March 2013.

Midori at BREAD and Butter tradeshow january 2013

Midori will show at Bread and Butter tradeshow from January 15th to 17th 2013 in the L.O.C.K. area of this fantastic tradeshow that is held twice a year.

Brands that exhibit in this Labels of Common Kin-area reflect more than just style: this style-defining area stands for an attitude. Linking the respect of old traditions with today’s cutting-edge spirit it’s all about values and things that last. Production is a loanword here, replaced by craft and manual labour. Craftsmanship, expertise, precision work and highest manufacturing standards pair with love, passion and pride – like back in the old days, when buying a garment, and wearing it had a deeper meaning.

Within this L.O.C.K. area two distinct area's exist; the Fire Dept where Midori showed last summer, and the new CONCEPT ROOM. Its curator is none other than the coveted Japanese Clutch magazine.  
This Concept Room intents to create a very special market environment by putting a special topic at its heart. This coming January CONCEPT ROOM devotes itself to Japan, home to valued craftsmanship and quality garments: The Flat Head, Midori, Momotaro Jeans, Japan Blue Jeans, Brown's Beach Jacket, Big John, Cledran, Allevol, The Superior Labor, Viberg - this prestigious collection will provide a highly exclusive experience. 

We look forward to this strong and bold tradeshow, and we look forward to seeing you. Come find us at the L.O.C.K. Concept Room, our booth location is H7 8.2
