Since ancient times, people have created and inherited necessary tools from familiar materials to survive in the severe struggle against nature, and have nurtured a lifestyle culture.
Over the years, the tools accumulate their own flavor and reflect the way of life.
The more severe the natural environment and the weaker we are, the stronger their power becomes.
In today's world where cheap and disposable products are encouraged, the act of repeatedly modifying and re-creating the things around us opens up a new world.
Based on this philosophy, we carefully select and collect beautiful, powerful, and unique Japanese antique art.
