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!

Typewriter Keys in Japan





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.

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 Hina Matsuri

Platforms with a red hi-mōsen are used to display a set of ornamental dolls (雛人形, hina-ningyō) representing the Emperor, Empress, attendants, and musicians in traditional court dress of the Heian period. The custom of displaying dolls began during the Heian period. Formerly, people believed the dolls possessed the power to contain bad spirits.





This will be sent in a box.
