鈴木松風堂(笑風堂 本店)
Suzuki Shofudo began in 1893. The founder, Suzuki Ukichiro, started by selling kaleidoscopes made of paper tubes, then changed kimono winding cores from wood to paper — the starting point of its paper craft, as the company history records. Today it plans, designs, makes and sells its own containers, turning Kyoto-dyed washi into 'paper Japanese miscellany', one piece at a time. The entry price at this maker's own shop is just ¥440: a komon-pattern square dish ¥440, a square dish ¥495, a stencil-dyed paper etiquette mirror ¥770, and a mica stamp book ¥1,980.
