Fountain Pen Return Policy

Fountain pens are special, and once filled, they are difficult to resell upon return. When purchasing a fountain pen, it is recommended that you test it by dipping the nib in ink. If you use the supplied cartridges or fill it with ink, we must send the pen to the manufacturer's repair facility to resell it. We want to ensure all our customers receive a brand-new, unused pen. Therefore, we charge a nominal 20% restocking fee to cover repair and shipping costs to the manufacturer's repair center. These pens are then resold in our outlet store. Please note that the restocking fee applies only to fountain pens that have been filled with ink. If you have any questions, please contact us.

The Midori 10-Year Diary "Gate" in Dark Red is a "hand-held monument" designed to preserve a decade of your life's history within a single, elegant volume. This is not merely a planner; it is a "loyal everyday companion" that allows you to look back at what you were doing on the same calendar day for the past ten years.

The "Gate" edition is named for the stunning gold foil-stamped design on the cover, depicting an ornate gateway that symbolizes the entrance to your memories. Finished in a deep, regal Dark Red, this diary is built to endure a decade of frequent use while aging with grace and character.

✨ Signature Features: A Decade of Memories

  • 10-Year Layout: Each page is dedicated to a specific date (e.g., January 1st), divided into ten horizontal sections so you can compare entries across a decade at a glance.

  • "Gate" Illustration: The cover features a sophisticated gate motif, often accompanied by a "spirit of the inventor" theme, inviting you to step into your past.

  • Premium MD Paper: Constructed with Midori's world-renowned MD Paper, which is specifically engineered to be fountain pen friendly, bleed-resistant, and "noticeably sensual" under the nib.

  • Regal Dark Red Cover: The heavy-duty, textured cover is finished in a timeless Dark Red that hides wear and provides a professional, sophisticated shelf presence.

  • Indexed Sections: Includes monthly thumb-tabs and side indexes to help you quickly navigate through years of recorded history.

🖋️ Experience & Specifications

  • Binding: Features a robust, thread-stitched binding that allows the book to lay flat, ensuring comfortable writing even in the later years of the decade.

  • Page Count: 732 pages, providing ample space for daily reflections, including leap years.

  • Included Case: Typically comes with a protective slipcase to shield the "Gate" artwork and the spine from dust and sunlight over its ten-year lifespan.

  • Dimensions: Roughly A5 size, offering a substantial feel without being cumbersome on a nightstand or desk.

Why Choose the Midori 10-Year Gate Diary?

The Midori 10-Year Diary is the ultimate tool for mindfulness and legacy. It turns the act of writing into a bold, joyful ritual of self-discovery. By choosing the Dark Red Gate edition, you are investing in a high-quality Japanese archive that will eventually become one of your most precious possessions—a complete record of a decade's worth of growth, travel, and everyday moments.

"The 10-year diary is a marathon, not a sprint, and Midori makes it a pleasure. The Gate design is particularly poetic because it feels like you're opening a literal door to your past every night. Pro tip: Because this diary is meant to last 10 years, I highly recommend using a high-quality archival or 'permanent' ink. The MD paper is thick enough to handle even the wettest fountain pen inks, so don't be afraid to use your favorite gold-trim pen to match the cover's foil stamping!"
