Freaks & co. Mini 6 (M6) Flat Desk Binder, Leather Ring Binder with 15mm Gold Rings

A coverless Mini 6 (M6) flat desk binder, made in Kyoto by Freaks & co. It sits flat on your desk and works like a memo pad. Fit your Mini 6 refills and slip a favourite photo, card or cover lifter on top.

The base is firm and flat so it stays stable while you write. Three layers of leather are stacked so there is no step between the base and the binder, and the screws are recessed on the back so no metal touches your desk.

The leathers

Mostro (Japan): vegetable-tanned leather, dyed, then hand-waxed one piece at a time. It looks whitish at first, then the wax sinks in and the leather becomes glossy and smooth.
Sabbia (Japan): a springy leather based on Italian tanning methods. It starts matt and gains a gloss as it ages.
Maya (Il Ponte, Italy): a richly oiled leather with a soft, brushed, slightly matt surface. With use it absorbs oils from your hands, the surface settles, and the colour deepens and gains a sheen. The brushed finish varies depending on which part of the hide it was cut from.
Back of every binder: Japanese and Italian leather splits laminated together for thickness and firmness. The origin, thickness and colour of the back leather vary with stock, and we can’t choose it. It may be brown or natural.

Care and notes

Every binder is real leather. Natural marks, wrinkles, tiny dark spots and variations in colour and tone are part of the material, not defects.
Colour and tone vary between leather lots, and screen colours may differ slightly from the real product.
Made for desk use. It can be carried, but a flat binder with no cover needs a little care when you take it out.

About Freaks & Co

Freaks & Co is a simple brand based in Kyoto, Japan, known for making personal everyday items in small batches, and everything is made in Kyoto. It began with a concern about the waste created when products have a short life or aren’t given the time they need. Each item carries the culture, traditions and stories of the craftspeople behind it, and the brand aims to protect those by avoiding wasteful production and focusing on quality.

For Freaks & Co, real luxury isn’t about money or the latest thing. It’s sharing time with people, and enjoying things that are rugged, honest and full of kindness. They hope to make things that are cherished rather than thrown away, so that you can carry them with you for years.
