Japanese ceramics and crafts delivered to you

Japan's craft towns each have their own tradition: porcelain from Arita and Hasami, Mino ware from Tajimi, pottery from Mashiko, Bizen and Shigaraki, lacquerware from Wajima and Aizu, Nambu ironware from Iwate, gold leaf from Kanazawa, copperware from Takaoka and towels from Imabari. We buy from kilns, workshops, craft stores and department stores.

We help you choose tableware, a tea set or a craft piece, order from a specific kiln or artisan, and we pack fragile items with great care.

For bulky or very fragile items we arrange specialized packing and give you a precise quote.

Every request is different, so we quote each one individually. Asking for a quote is free and without obligation.
