Such a cute lovely shop! I went here to get Japanese stationary! There was such a variety of options. I love the selection they put out. They have the traveler journals and Midori journals here as well! The person at the cashier was such a wonderful and compassionate person! Wonderful experience! Definitely will be coming...

Incredible customer service. I was mistakenly shipped the wrong product but Susan and the team were quick to resolve and send me the right product. Their website also has a beautiful curation of products. Would love to see the store in person if I’m ever in the area.
