Every March, we have had the joy of traveling to the United States to take part in Asia Week New York. This year, due to various circumstances, we will be participating online only.
We are delighted to share a special online exhibition of our New Acquisitions and Selected Highlights during this season. We hope you enjoy exploring the works and ideas we’ve prepared, and we truly look forward to sharing this experience with you.
Our gallery is located on Shinmonzen-dōri, known as Kyoto’s foremost location for businesses specializing in antiques. You will recognize our building by its characteristic facade that is dominated by large blue glass panels—an unusual feature in our neighborhood. In our white gallery space, we exhibit a wide selection of artworks covering the entire scope of Japanese art. Objects include Buddhist and Shintō sculptures, masks of the Nō theater, screens, hanging scrolls, and ceramics. Savoring these artworks one by one, their captivating beauty will open up to you the full breadth of Japan’s long history and culture. We would be delighted to help you find just the right piece for you.
For twelve years, we ran a gallery in the United Kingdom and we are fortunate to count many overseas clients among our customers. Not a few clients greet us with “I’m back again!” when they enter our gallery during visits to Japan.
Many of our artworks have been acquired by major museums in the United States. Of course, we will be happy to arrange overseas shipping for you.
Also, please do not hesitate to contact us in English.
Please drop by our gallery anytime. We look forward to your visit!
