I am delighted by all the products, from the towels to the brushes. They waited few months in boxes during the refurbisment work of my appartment. I am now pleased to be able to share with you a picture with some tinplate containers and karmi boxes on shelves. These are handmade in red oak (Quercus rubra) from La Dombes, in Eastern France. This wood has been widely used in my new flat and perfectly matches with my treat from Japan.
