## What is the Midori Desk Ring Calendar?

**It is a small, illustrated desk calendar with a ring at the top.** Midori, the Japanese stationery maker, sells it as an easy, well-designed desk calendar whose picture changes each month. Its store text says it suits an office as well as a home.

Each design has a yearly theme. The dog calendar is about living with dogs, and the cat calendar is about months at home with a cat. Midori says the ruled lines, date numbers and month numbers are all hand-drawn, which gives it a relaxed look. For a standing calendar with a wooden base, see our [Midori Stand Calendar 2027](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/midori-stand-calendar-2027/).

## What sizes and designs are there?

**Two sizes, S and M, in several designs.** Midori's store lists dog, cat, bird, country-time flowers and Ojisan for 2027. The sizes below are the ones Midori gives for the cat S and the dog M.

| | S (cat) | M (dog) |
|---|---|---|
| In use | 147 mm tall × 124 mm wide × 60 mm deep | 145 mm tall × 180 mm wide × 60 mm deep |

## What does each month have?

**A new illustration above the dates, and a blank back.** Midori lists the back of each sheet as plain, so you can write a note or a to-do behind the month. The S cat calendar also has an index and rokuyo, and a column page at the end of December about cat coat patterns and the personalities linked to them.


## How do you use it?

**Stand it where you can see it and flip a sheet at the start of each month.** Midori says the S has a compact size that fits nearly anywhere and an index that makes the pages easy to turn. The date areas leave room to write appointments, and the blank back is a place for a monthly to-do list or a note you'd rather keep out of sight.

Because the ring sits at the top and the sheets lean back, the calendar is 60 mm deep when standing in either size. Check that depth against the shelf or desk corner you have in mind. Midori's store doesn't say what paper weight the sheets are, so we can't say how a heavy pen will behave on them.

## Who is it for?

**It suits people who want a small calendar with some personality on a desk or shelf.** The illustrated designs make it a gift as well as a tool, and the two sizes let you choose between a compact S and a wider M with more room per date. If you want a plain grid with more writing room, look at a larger planner instead, such as the [Midori Flat Diary 2027](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/midori-flat-diary-2027/).

## How does it compare with other desk calendars?

**It is the small, decorative option.** The [Midori MD Desk Calendar 2027](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/midori-md-desk-calendar-2027/) is a plainer paper desk calendar. Our [best 2027 desk calendars](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/best-2027-desk-calendars/) roundup compares more. For the same illustrators' designs in a diary, see the [Midori Pocket Diary 2027](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/midori-pocket-diary-2027/).

## Where is it made, and what does it cost?

**Midori's store lists Japan as the country of origin.** The S costs 880 yen (about US$5.57) and the M 990 yen (about US$6.27) with tax, both in our $$ band ($5–20).
