Q.Why is your price inexpensive compared with others?

We are distributing medium size reproduced editions of the Ukiyo-e woodblock prints. Unlike other distributors who are selling a larger size, ours are one size smaller, making them easily accessible to more customers. Although our products have affordable price range, we are proud of our quality, which is more than comparable to others, maximizing the masters’ time-honored techniques, fully passed down from the Edo period.

A.
The medium size of our products are printed on approximately 32.5-34 X 24 cm Echizen paper (Japanese hand-crafted paper, excluding some special products) The size of the frame is 44.5 (width) X 37 (height) cm.

Q.How to store the printed Ukiyo-e

A.
Our reproduction of Ukiyo-e woodblock prints is using the same natural materials that were used in the Edo period. Due to the uniqueness, to avoid deterioration and fading, keep out of direct sunlight. Keep in the place where there is some flow of fresh air. Our frames provide UV protection.
