The New Mingei Collection
MADE IN JAPAN. HAND MADE. ONLY ONE. NO RESTOCK.
What defines the New Mingei Collection
Items that...
ONE OF A KIND
Many of our pieces are handcrafted using traditional techniques—made in small batches or as one-of-one works.
Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
No restocks.
CAN BE USED
The New Mingei Collection consists of arts & crafts that can be used in everyday life.
Beauty in Utility -用の美- is the most essential part of New Mingei.
LEGITIMATE PRICE
Our prices reflect materials, time, history, and responsibility—
never cheapened, never overpriced.
MADE BY NATURE
From silk and silver thread
to wood, urushi lacquer,
and Nambu cast iron.
We focus on products using only natural and precious materials.
NEW & TRAD, YET AUTHENTIC
Both contemporary artisans
and masters of the past.
Some pieces are made by present-day craftsmen.
Others were crafted in the Edo period (pre-industrial historical age)
MADE IN JAPAN
From the times of samurai, castles rose, rivers were tamed, and cast iron was forged— our arts and crafts are not for decoration, but to live each and every day.
Our products are proudly MADE IN JAPAN.
Nishijin Gobelin Weave Obi
Woven with the scale motif — a symbol of protection. This pattern appears inDōjōji,
one of the great masterpieces of Noh theatre.
Silk Haori Cord
A cord used to fasten a haori jacket.
Small, functional, and essential —
it completes the silhouette without drawing attention.
Hakata Weave Obi
The dense Hakata weave tightens firmly at the waist, once trusted enough to carry a sword. Designed for dress occasions,
it holds presence without excess.
Hakata Weave Golden Obi
A quiet gold whose color gently changes with the light, revealing depth in dignity.
Inden Leather Handbag
Crafted from deerskin, lacquered by hand,
and finished with antler fittings and silk cords.
An ancient technique passed down for centuries, where softness meets strength, and nature is never disguised.
