The Hanga Bamboo is another beautiful incense that I have purchased from wabisabi shop,every morning I rotate between the plum and the bamboo.for me it sets the mood for the day
I purchased two, intending to give one to a family member. Instead I am keeping both as they are so useful. From reaching down into jars to get the last of the contents to spreading the same on toast to prying up the lid on a can, these are great. I especially like that they can go into my dishwasher. Highly recommended.
Thank you, Alice! I love how you’ve discovered so many clever uses for them—that’s exactly what makes this tool such a quiet superstar in the kitchen. And being dishwasher-safe really does make life easier. Sounds like keeping both was the perfect choice!
My new broom feels like useful art. It is beautifully made and works extremely well. It has solved my frustration with pet hair and our wood floors shine after I sweep with this broom.
Thank you so much! I love how you described it as “useful art”—that’s exactly the spirit of these brooms. I’m so happy to hear it’s helping with pet hair and making your wood floors shine.
I just opened the box and used these garden pruners and my jaws dropped. They are so much more efficient and the sharper edges don't put too much pressure on my hands - a big help as they weaken with age. I really appreciate this kind of high precision sheers. They are a gardener's delight! I'm so glad I upgraded my tool. It was worth the price I paid!
Thank you so much! I love how you captured the precision and ease these pruners bring—it really is like upgrading to a whole new level of gardening. I’m delighted to hear they’re helping your hands and making the work more enjoyable.
Perfect for my friend’s birthday, and she loved it!
Thank you, Jeff! I’m so happy to hear the furoshiki made the perfect birthday gift—and even more wonderful that your friend loved it!
I love the Shirayuki Kitchen Cloths and ordered a few more because they hold up and dry quickly in humidity.
Thank you, Li! I’m so glad to hear you love the Shirayuki Kitchen Cloths. The way they hold up and dry so quickly—even in humidity—is one of the things I admire about them too. A few more on hand is always a good idea!
It's so lovely to look at, rather than putting it away in a cupboard, I have it displayed in the kitchen. I'm now trying to brew various kinds of tea and how much leaves/fruits to put in.
Thank you, Junko! I love that you’ve chosen to display the teapot—it really does have such a quiet beauty. Using fruits for tea is such a great idea, I’ll have to try it myself!
What struck me about this ladle is its beauty. Once received, I liked the heavier weight as you can feel the quality. I'm looking forward to using this for the kitchen and also serving at the table.
Yes! I feel the same way about this piece—it’s a favorite of mine too.
This brush is a wonderful addition to my routine. The bristles are exceptionally soft and supple, making it very gentle on the skin. Unlike harsher brushes, it does not cause redness or irritation, nor does it pull at the skin. Instead, it glides smoothly across the skin and is a true pleasure to use. A thoughtfully made brush that combines effectiveness with comfort—I highly recommend it
Thank you so much, Linda! I’m thrilled to hear the brush has been such a pleasure to use. Kanaya really puts so much care into their craft, and it shows in how gentle yet effective this brush feels on the skin. I’m so glad it’s become part of your routine.
I wanted to test this sponge in my kitchen. It does clean easily and washes in such a way that it doesn't smell after several use like my other ones. It's true to word!
Thank you so much, Junko! I’m the biggest fan of this sponge too—I’ve tried so many others over the years, but nothing compares. I’m so glad to hear it’s been working just as well in your kitchen and living up to its promise.
This is my second time I get these garden pruners. I have a tendency to leave tools outside, but the first one stayed sharp for years and I've enjoyed using them. I'm a bit more careful with these and even use oil so the blades stay sharp. It's good to have dependable garden tools like these!
Thank you, Junko! I’m so glad to hear your first pair lasted for years and that you’ve come back for another. Hidehisa tools really are wonderfully dependable—wishing you many more good seasons in the garden!
These have got to be the best smelling incense,I’ve ever smelled. I burn them in my lounge room and they make my entire house smell so fresh,
Thank you so much, Danny! We couldn’t agree more — the Plum incense is truly one of the best. Kousaido makes such heavenly scents, it’s always hard to choose a favorite. Alongside Plum, I often find myself reaching for Wave and Crane too. Each one brings such a special atmosphere to the home. We’re so glad you’re enjoying it!
Love this awesome bag.
Thank you, Anthony! We’re so glad you love the bag. Japanese denim is made to be a true companion—strong, practical, and only getting better with age. Wishing you many years of enjoyment with it!
Beautiful and well made.
Thank you, Anthony! I couldn’t agree more—it’s such a beautifully made tool. Practical, functional, and a true kitchen superstar, even if it often goes a little under the radar. I’m so glad you appreciate it too!
Absolutely beautiful. I bought it for my son and he loves it and what I like about it, is that it is very light!
Thank you, Linda! I’m so glad to hear your son loves the glass. I was actually using mine this morning for my chai and thought of your comment—it really is so light, just as you said, yet you can feel the quality the moment you hold it. Such a beautiful piece to enjoy every day.
I purchased the salt pot in charcoal color and it arrived within a few days. The pot is beautifully made. It is relatively light weight yet sturdy, and keeps the salt wonderfully dry. You have the option either to pinch or to pour. I love the thoughtful functionality and the decorative aesthetics.
Thank you so much! I’m delighted to hear you’re enjoying the salt pot. I keep a couple on my own kitchen counter and often bring them to the dining table too—they work beautifully in both places. The thoughtful design really shines in everyday use.
Decided to upgrade from a cheap plastic broom we had been using. The shuro broom is indeed a luxe cleaning utensil. The look and feel of the broom is very distinctive, the ridges on the handle are quite cool. The bristles are quiet but effective. I’m 6’0 tall and the broom handle could be longer for someone my height.
Love this brush. I was looking for a boar bristle brush that wasn’t ridiculously expensive and would work for my thicker hair. This gets through my tangles well, and as a bonus, the stiff hairs feel really good on my scalp (though some people may find the sensation a little too scratchy.) It makes my hair feel soft and look shiny. Also, the handle feels sturdy and overall the brush feels very well made. I’m very happy with this purchase!
Beautifully made duster. Removes dust easily. Would highly recommend.
everyone needs this broom. i said what i said!
Good utilitarian chopsticks. For price. It is difficult to find bamboo or durable wood reusable chopsticks in the U.S. Most are plastic and strangely large. I have been looking for everyday reusable non-plastic chopsticks for three years. These are what I was hoping for.
Easy to clean, simple, but seem durable. A few in the package have a slight bend which I don’t like, but they are still usable.
Beautiful, well made, rain resistant. Love the pattern. Good size for many uses.
Adorable and as expected. Easy to tie up the bento box. Got one for myself and one for my brother as a gift. He was thrilled. Wish there were a few more pattern options in this size cuz it’s useful.
I wanted a broom that I didn't have to hide in my small apartment. This broom is so well made and a joy to use and even show off. I’m tall so its a little short for me but I still love it
