We discover excellent manufacturers from all over Japan and support their product development.

MORIKOUGEI, specializing in wood made from paper-thin slices of wood, was founded in 1953 in Tokushima Prefecture, Japan, and has been crafting products for about 70 years to date.

We manufacture and sell trays with distinctive designs. These designs are unique in that the color of the wood grain appears differently depending on the angle and direction of light.

This effect is achieved through innovative methods of gluing and trimming the grain.

Established 190 years ago, the lacquer store in Kyoto offers simple and modern lacquerware that seamlessly integrates into contemporary living spaces.

We have numerous overseas customers and will continue to convey the charm of lacquer to the world.

We employ traditional Bizen pottery techniques, hailing from one of the six oldest kilns in Japan, dating back to the Kamakura period. However, our unique manufacturing method, tailored to modern living, renders the pottery microwavable and ovenproof.

The vessels are meticulously crafted in the image of those used by demons in ancient times.
