We would like to be a bridge between Japan and Europe through the concept of *"Mottainai".
Our merchandise created by Japanese traditional handicraft techniques, such as furniture, daily antiques, and kimono fascinate Europeans who value uniqueness. Through the development of new markets, we aim to increase variety and quantity of our merchandise. We hope that used goods, which is no longer used by young generations, cross the sea and be considered as valuable one more time.
*Mottainai is a common phrase in Japan implying that it is too wasteful to throw away something that is still usable.
