Vintage Japanese Typewriter Key - Japanese Stamp - Kanji Stamp - Chinese Character - Vintage Stamp - mat - matting - rush mat

Vintage Japanese Typewriter Key - Japanese Stamp - Kanji Stamp - Chinese Character - Vintage Stamp -  mat - matting - rush mat



Vintage Japanese Typewriter Key - Japanese Stamp - Kanji Stamp - Chinese Character - Vintage Stamp - mat - matting - rush mat



We were lucky to come across a case of these "katsuji" (Japanese typewriter keys). There are over 2300 of these. They are vintage but have never been used. These would have been the extras in case the ones in the machine broke. Please look at the last picture to see what an old Japanese typewriter looked like. There were at least 2000 keys so needless to say, this was only used in businesses.

They are from the "昭和" "showa period" . The "showa" period is from 1926-1989 but these are at least 30 years old as Japanese stopped using them once the word processor was invented.

This would be perfect for using as a stamp with ink or for stamping clay etc.

This stamp is the Kanji (Chinese character) for "go" = "mat; matting; rush mat".

It measures 2.3 cm long (long enough to be able to get a nice grip) and 5mm wide. The Chinese character itself is about 5mm wide....so please note how tiny it is. It is made of metal.

About Our New And Improved Store!

I spent the last month busting my tush trying to build and stock our new and improved store www.from-japan-with-love.com . We opened this store about 6 years ago and for the first 4 years or so we were pretty happy with it. But then I was getting frustrated because there were features I really wanted but the company we were with didn't have them.

I kept looking for a new host for our site. I would even go on to the Etsy forums as I know people would ask other Etsy sellers for their advice about websites. Still nothing...until about a month ago.

Finally I found what I was looking for! We went with www.create.net . They offered a 1 month free trial (no credit card needed) so I signed up. I loved it so  much that after only 2 days I joined. I spent a lot of timing building it, getting used to it and stocking it. We took  a lot of new pictures of our products and then we opened!

So...what do I love about it?


1. We can have more than 1 picture!! This is so thrilling...no more cramming 2-4 pictures into one!



2. If a product is sold out...a little sign will tell you! No more adding an item to the cart only to find out it is sold out!



3. When you click on an item to read more about it...the number available is shown. No more adding it to the cart to figure out how many are in stock.




4. When trying to figure out the shipping costs you used to have to fill in your entire address. Now, just choose your country and it will show you the shipping cost.




5. On the front page you can clearly see what is in your cart and what the sub total is.



Those are just some of the features we love!  There are so many more!

Anyway, we are thrilled and are planning to really build this store up big. We will be adding not just more bento goods but Japanese vintage, supplies like traditional stickers and rubber stamps and much much more! So stay tuned.

The one downside to changing hosts is that for those of you who made an account on our old store, that account won't work now so you will have to make another one. Sorry! We know it is inconvenient so to not only say sorry for that but to also celebrate our new and improved store we are offering 10% off to anyone who shops with us from today until September 18th, 2014. Just add the discount code fromjapanwithlove10 into the discount code area and you will get 10% off your items! No minimum amount required!

Mini Santa is coming to Japan / Christmas Cards in Japan





The series of Christmas Card is filled with Mini Santa and beautiful scenes in Japan like Mount Fuji in Shizuoka, Temple in Kyoto, Castle in Kumamoto, Shrine Gate in HIroshima etc



This is really beautiful and unique! On the front of the card it says " Season's greetings" and on the inside it says "The season's best wishes and a happy new year.".



Not only does the card sparkle with gold but it is embossed-the pictures don't do it justice!



This is really beautiful and unique!

EMA Japanese Shrine Wood Plaques for Making a Wish





This is an "Ema". "Ema" are small wooden plaques on which Shinto worshipers write their prayers or wishes. The ema are then left hanging up at the shrine, where the kami (spirits or gods) receive them. They bear various pictures, often of animals or other Shinto imagery, and many have the word gan'i (願意), meaning "wish", written along the side. In ancient times people would donate horses to the shrines for good favor, over time this was transferred to a wooden plaque with a picture of a horse, and later still to the various wooden plaques sold today for the same purpose.



Ema are sold for various wishes. Common reasons for buying a plaque are for success in work or on exams, marital bliss, to have children, and health. Some shrines specialize in certain types of these plaques, and the larger shrines may offer more than one. Sales of ema help support the shrine financially.
