▶Craftsman Passion
"Products that give comfort to the soul."
We use wood given to us by nature to make the most of its beauty, and we cut the wood with reverence for the tree that has become a large tree. The more the craft is used, the more the warmth and flavor of the wood becomes apparent, giving comfort to the human heart.
We will continue to challenge new wheel-thrown crafts while preserving traditional techniques and the heart of the woodworker.
Please enjoy watching the Japanese craftsmanship!!!!
