Bringing Everyday Refinement Through an Original Curation Approach and Spatial Coordination

"A life in which you can truly relax, rain or shine." Since opening in 2015, Amahare has sought to be a brand that, together with makers and customers, envisions and creates "a life that is truly comfortable for Japanese people." What Amahare handles is Japanese craft and the art that extends from it — Tokyo Amahare, Kyoto KYO AMAHARE, the tea room "Iu," and an online shop. Curated so that each visitor can envision their own way of living: everyday vessels and flower vases, tea ceremony tools and kaiseki ware for special occasions, and items for quiet dialogue with oneself.
