A Lifetime of Creations

One of my earliest memory of my fascination with Japanese crafts was from when I was 12 years old, handling a plate. It was a piece of Seto ceramic, which I had just learned of then. To a little girl, it was a richly coloured plate which caught my eyes, felt just right in my hands, and captured my heart. Today, decades later, it still regularly features on my dinner table with my family.

It would be my privilege to guide you along your discovery and ownership of fine Japanese crafts that can likewise bring you joy for innumerable occasions for years to come.

Our Goods

Handcrafted with passion

We represent craftspeople who make each piece lovingly by hand. Every piece is unique therefore, even if they are of the same design. These variations add to the beauty of the craft, and you can rest assured there's none other quite like it.

Our craftspeople are recognised for their skill, and dedication, and that each piece you come to own is the fruit of their thousands of hours of experience. Some have received recognition as "Intangible Cultural Property."

See a sample of our wares here.

Our craftspeople also do custom work. Businesses are welcome too. Let me know how I can help.
