Mingei
Since 1987, we have spent 2-3 months a year mostly in the South of Japan, where we find our items through small dealers and private parties. We then display them in our 200 square meter show room in Brussels and in our online shop.
The first section of our online shop is about Japanese antiques
Ancient traditional furniture - tansu and folk art - mingei are our speciality
As we buy most of our tansu from small dealers and even sometimes directly from private houses, it is vital to restore or at least to clean up most of them. We do our best to do so without damaging their original finishing and patina as that is what makes them unique.
