Each is carefully made at their workshop in Hida Takayama, utilizing and processing more than 10 types of domestic natural woods. Users can enjoy the differences in grain, texture, scent, and hue among the different woods, through their five senses.
Further, the process of recognizing the shape of each block and putting them back in order in the wooden box would surely aid one's intellectual training.
The items were packaged very well and arrived in excellent condition. Ordering was very easy and I am grateful the information was provided in multiple languages.
The quality of materials and craftsmanship is exceptional; I can feel the thoughtfulness of the craftsperson when I use these items. The Oak Village tsumiki set has quickly become a favourite of both children and adults in our family. It appeals to all the senses and it is sustainably made and well crafted. The hagama rice pot produces the most delicious tasting rice, and thoughtful details like the tapered rim and water markers make it enjoyable to use. The design of the scrubbing brush is ingenious and so versatile in the kitchen! I am very glad I discovered this on your website as I have not seen a similar design in my country before. I am more than satisfied with everything I ordered.
I very much enjoy your curated selection of handcrafted items, and I will visit again in the future. Thank you again for sharing these products outside of Japan.
