Overview

“A once-in-a-lifetime encounter “ichigo ichie (一期一会)”. Discover the unique beauty of kimono.”

Every kimono is truly one of a kind.

No two are ever the same. Each piece holds its own story and beauty, waiting to be discovered in that fleeting, perfect moment.

In Japan, we have a saying: ichigo ichie (一期一会). It means “treasure each encounter as if it happens only once in a lifetime,” capturing the spirit of cherishing the present moment.

Among more than 200 antique kimonos, the one that catches your eye is your ichigo-ichie, a unique encounter between you and the fabric.

Turn this precious moment into a one-of-a-kind work of art, and savor the special experience.

As you transform your chosen kimono into a piece of art, you are not only preserving legacy but also creating a deeply personal memory that will stay with you. Turn this precious moment into a one-of-a-kind work of art, and savor the experience of meeting something and someone you’ll never meet again in quite the same way.
