"Makino Makino Letter," an art picture book that conveys the joy of loving plants with Dr. Tomitaro Makino.
The whole story is decorated with illustrations of beautiful plants, interwoven with Dr. Tomitaro Makino's charming personality, smile and memorable episodes from his life.
The plant was illustrated by Kanako Sasaki.
While it is depicted in detail like a botanical diagram by Dr. Tomitaro Makino, it is also boldly abstracted to construct a beautiful world view.
The brief text accompanying the painting captures Dr. Tomitaro Makino's life and personality in a nutshell.

This Japanese company has been in business for over 100 years, beginning with sword making.
Today, the company develops gold leaf products and decorates various places such as shrines, museums, and luxury hotels with gold leaf.

[Our commitment to our products]
As an expert of gold leaf, we have developed products for general consumers with the use of gold leaf, leveraging the unique technology in the world.

Using screen printing technology cultivated over many years in the field of industrial printing, we are developing original products.

The company's main products are greeting cards, notebooks, and other stationery, all of which are produced in its own studio one by one with an emphasis on handmade prints.

The company exhibited our products at exhibitions in New York and Tokyo and has been well received from foreign countries as well, including commissions from the American Institute of Architects and the Brooklyn Museum for custom-made products.

With special attention to materials and colors, we produce paper goods one by one with the greatest care.

Commitment to handmade
・We manually cut the paper cutouts on the products.
・We paste fine colored papers on the back side of the paper goods so that many colors can be seen.

Although we cannot mass-produce them, we offer paper goods that you cannot buy at ordinary stores.
