Since ancient times, people have made and passed down the tools they needed from familiar materials to survive in the battle against the harsh natural environment, and have nurtured their lifestyles and culture through these tools.
The more they are used, the more flavorful they become, and they reflect the lives of the people of that era.
The harsher the natural environment and the weaker the people, the stronger their power becomes.
In today's world, where cheap, disposable goods are encouraged, the act of repeatedly modifying and remaking everyday items opens up a new world.
We carefully select and collect beautiful, powerful, and unique Japanese antiques.
