"Maruwakaya" Titanium Tumbler "ROCKET" Exhibition and Sale Until November 29 (Tue)



"Maruwakaya," a production group that disseminates Japanese craftsmanship to the world. With the theme "What form does ultimate technology take?", three companies possessing Japan's highest level of technology (Kitajima Press Works in Ota Ward × Yamazaki Polishing Factory in Tsubame, Niigata × Hasegawa Metal Turning Factory in Tsubame) have jointly created the titanium beer tumbler "ROCKET."

Using titanium, which is said to be difficult to process, and with a strong commitment to "no compromises in superficial techniques," processors from different regions have brought together their advanced skills to create an artistic product. In addition to tumblers, they are exhibiting and selling titanium chopsticks, chopstick rests, and sake cups. Please enjoy the many works by Japanese masters.

"Oliver Peoples" Vintage Frames & New Eyewear Pre-sale
Until November 15 (Tue)



"Oliver Peoples" is a representative brand of American vintage style. Its history began in November 1986 when Larry Leight, one of the founders and the current owner-designer, opened the optical shop "Oliver Peoples Los Angeles" on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood.

Inspired by vintage frames that had been stored in a New York basement for 50 years, they created a completely new "vintage" by uniquely arranging styles from the 1920s to the 1940s for a modern sensibility. The brand is favored by many celebrities, particularly in Hollywood. This time, we are showcasing rare vintage frames made 10-15 years ago, along with our latest collection.



"Parker" New "Ingenuity" Released



ISETAN Shinjuku Store Men's Building | ISETAN MEN'S Residence 04


Since its founding in 1888, "Parker" has consistently pioneered new eras by creating innovative pens while inheriting tradition. They have now developed the "Ingenuity," named the fifth writing instrument. It is a completely new writing instrument that combines the characteristics of a fountain pen, a ballpoint pen, and a rollerball pen.
This is the ultimate pen that "Parker," which has pursued true writing ease, has arrived at: a flexible nib like a fountain pen, resistance to drying out and aging like a ballpoint pen, and a vibrant, smooth writing experience like a rollerball pen.
Please try the rich writing comfort realized through the latest technology.
