This exhibition features cushion covers and chairs. Please enjoy the new world of "NISHIJIN."



TEMIYAGE Fair: On display until Monday, August 22
The charm of "temiyage" (small gifts) lies in the ability to convey heartfelt sentiments and thoughtful gestures through direct presentation. This year, the fair highlighting "temiyage" is back. We present our recommended "temiyage" from Isetan Men's Residence.





"Nicolai Bergmann" Potted Plant Custom Order Fair
Succulents, with their unique shapes and wide variety, are popular among both men and women. Many are drawn to their distinctive forms. They are also attractive for their hardiness and longevity, requiring only watering about once a week and sunlight to thrive.

During this period, you can create your original arrangement by choosing the type of succulent, your preferred sand color, and the container. They make wonderful interior decorations and are also perfect as a "temiyage."



"Santa Maria Novella" Milk Soap & Men's Soap
In the historic Italian city of Florence, "Santa Maria Novella" boasts a history of nearly 800 years as the world's oldest pharmacy. Their soaps are crafted using traditional methods and are matured for several months in a natural environment to allow the ingredients to settle. Experience a moment of luxury with the subtle fragrance and gentle touch on your skin with every use.

However, they also developed and were quick to adopt innovative features such as the world's first "Dream Touch Pen" using 23-carat palladium, and the "Double Tank Power Filler System" for instantly filling a large ink capacity with one hand. Enjoy the functionality and artistic value of "Visconti" pens.
