It is a very nice bathing set like changing the daily bathroom to the best hot spring inn.
Yamaichi, founded in 1973, has been making products by using Kiso's woods aged 100-300 years in Nagisomachi, Nagano Prefecture.
A Japanese bathroom full of wood scents will wash away the tiredness of the day in a happy mood.
I am very grateful to be able to obtain both the Banshu Hamono scissors and Yamaichi cypress soap tray.
The Banshu Hamono scissors were an honour to unwrap in the beautiful packaging and I hope to look after them and put them to good use on both detailed embroidery and handmade clothing.
The Yamaichi cypress soap tray is a wonder of skilled carpentry, it looks so seamless with no gaps anywhere!
The detail and craftsmanship is beyond anything I could purchase normally (when outside Japan), and I love that this directly supports the local artisans.
Thank you and I hope to purchase via your site again.

I’m very satisfied with my order (: — Everything arrived in great condition and was well packaged. I was initially worried about ordering glass jars since they are so fragile, but nothing was broken. I was very impressed with the box when it arrived.
I love the canisters we ordered and have ordered more a few times. They compliment the glass jars we purchased well, and everything looks beautiful on our shelves.
Thank you so much! We look forward to ordering from you again!

Cypress Soap Tray
It could store soaps. As it contains a duckboard inside, it wouldn't accumulate water inside and it truly is convenient. The duckboard can be removed when cleaning it, and users could keep it clean.
