Spring Dream Kokeshi Doll
“Hi The Japanese Shop
I just wanted to let you know that I was so excited waiting for delivery of my Samurai Kokeshi Doll and Spring Dream Kokeshi Doll, when I opened the boxes I was thrilled they were more lovely than I expected and I have put them pride of place on my mantle. They are even on my Facebook page!
I have a wishlist and have emailed my family the link as it’s my birthday next month so fingers crossed by next month I will have started a collection. Delivery is great and the service is fab.
Many Thanks,
Wendy”

Small Happy Life Together Kokeshi Doll
“Thank you so much for the care that was taken over the presentation and delivery of the small happy life together dolls. I was very impressed with the quality of the product and the wrapping. The recipients of this gift were delighted by the authenticity of the materials and it was a lovely reminder of home on a wedding day.
I look forward to purchasing further items from you in the future.
Best wishes,
Nick”

Japanese Kimono
“Hello lovely people at The Japanese Shop,
I received my beautiful Kimono today. I chose it for myself as a birthday gift and so glad I did. It’s arrived very fast, beautifully gift boxed and its even lovelier than I thought it would be. Beautifully made, stunning colour and detail. I chose the cotton option and the quality and weight of the material is perfect. I will be raving about the superb service of The Japanese Shop to my friends (and anyone who will listen) for a long time. Many thanks. Now…to order my Obi…
Kindest regards,
Jo”

We recently supported a Japanese Evening held in Chichester on March 10th which brought in just over £1 500 for a charity supporting the children affected by last year’s tsunami in Japan.
The team at Mary Atkinson have now reached their initial target of £3 000 and are hoping to raise even more money to extend their work with the COCORO charity in bringing positive touch to the children affected by the devastating tsunami.
Well done guys!
