Lost in the World of Japanese Souvenirs?

Recommendations by Budget
Under ¥3,000 — A Piece of Japanese Spirit
We recommend tenugui (¥2,700). Authentically dyed using the chusen technique, these lightweight cloths are perfect for carrying abroad. Iida Dankoh's unique designs are guaranteed to be remembered by whoever receives them.
¥10,000–¥15,000 — For Someone Special
Sensu folding fans (¥15,000) are works of art that embody Japanese aesthetics. The modern designs of "Naga x KAPUKI" or the bold pieces by "Iida Dankoh x KAPUKI" double as interior decor. Pair with a fan stand (¥6,000) for the perfect gift.
¥5,000–¥10,000 — A Treat for Yourself
T-shirts (¥8,000–¥9,800). The luxury of wearing art by Iida Dankoh or Nishioka Pencil as everyday clothing. Designs available only in Japan make for a special way to carry your travel memories.
