MASTER of CRAFTS
Tokyo's traditional crafts are made using traditional skills and techniques that have been developed in the distinctive climate and history of Tokyo and passed down across generations.
Traditional crafts with their simple handmade sensibility, warmth and superior functionality add richness to our lives when compared to mass-produced, uniform products.
As a local industry with deep roots in the community, traditional crafts also contribute to the development of the local economy and play a major role in local culture.
