What are we about...
A Japanese art gallery with expertise specializing in authentic woodblock print. Collect with the confidence and seasoned eye of an expert in the field. Learn to pick up on the subtle differences that collectors use to judge value and desirability. Does the condition make the difference between your average run-of-the-mill design and an exceptional print? This knowledge does not come overnight; it's learned from making many expensive mistakes. Of course, each collector has his or her own tastes and trends in what's popular change all the time. It is our goal to lessen the guesswork for collectors. Each of our prints is carefully described giving you an idea of the merits of each print, hopefully, to help you decide which print makes the most sense for your money.
