Sincerely, The Store Owner.

Thank you for visiting our website. We hope you enjoyed the products you viewed.
In order to further satisfy our customers, we will continue to prepare a wide variety of replicas of wooden patterns stored by famous stores in various parts of Japan.
As explained in the website, the number of craftsmen who make wooden molds for wagashi has been decreasing, and passing on this skill has also become an issue.
We aim to preserve existing wooden patterns in data format and create new wooden patterns from data.
There are many traditional crafts buried in Japan, and we would be grateful if you could enjoy one of them, the world of wagashi wood molds.
Some Japanese confectionery stores around Japan display wooden molds stored in their stores.
Even if the wooden pattern is no longer used, we will reproduce a replica of it, which is deeply engraved with the history and feelings of the store.

Japanese Culture × Overseas, My Thoughts
A distant relative on my mother's side is Yamasaki Yasushi, who was born in what is now Toyama Prefecture in the early Meiji era.
He is said to have traveled from Yokohama to San Francisco at a young age and arrived in Vancouver, Canada around 1900. He is said to have served as the owner of the Japanese American newspaper "Tairiku Nippo" and the first president of the Japanese Association of Canada, in order to build a bridge between Japan and Canada.
In 1984, a cherry tree was planted in Toronto High Park and the name "Iwasaki Yoriki Midori" was inscribed on it. The name "iwasaki yoriki midori" is engraved on the tree.
In any time of peace, we can enjoy good food, art, and music. We pray for the continuation of peaceful times all over the world.
