Collection: Nakagawa

Founded in 1716 in Nara, Japan, Nakagawa Masashichi Shoten began as a merchant of Nara-Sarashi ramie cloth and has grown into one of Japan’s leading heritage craft ("KŌGEI") companies. Today, it collaborates with over 800 artisans across ceramics, textiles, metalwork, woodcraft, and lacquerware, operating more than 60 directly managed stores in Japan. 

Nakagawa’s philosophy “preservation through transformation” emphasises sustainability and longevity. Each product is designed to age gracefully with use, encouraging a slower, more mindful approach to everyday living. By bringing centuries-old skills into the present, Nakagawa aims to show how traditional craft can enrich modern life.
