I absolutely like Japanese Mashiro…

I absolutely like Japanese Mashiro calligraphy paper! It is of superb quality for such a price. My fullest appreciation for the Japanese paper craftsmanship who are so honest that even the most simple practice paper feels so very good when using it! Thank you very much! The delivery is fast and convenient as it is shipped within the EU (no customs procedure needed)

Great products

Great products, high quality.

I ordered two Noren curtains and one rod, two made in Japan, one from China. All are great.

I was extremely impressed to the service. I made the first order before sleep, but I wanted to make second order when I woke up, however I checked the term that the order could be edited after receiving order confirmation email. But only a short time, I received an email from Japan Venue, they granted me free shipping as they combined two orders manually. I felt so warm of humanity, not just doing online shopping with robot.

From quality and service aspects, I highly recommend to shop in this platform, quick and reliable.

PS. The product was delivered from France, if you are from Switzerland as me, be aware the tax free postage allowance, which is just CHF 62. Over it, you will bear to pay the administration free CHF 13 plus 3% of tax to the total cost including product value and shipping. I was too happy bypass this rule. But that was my own mistake.

Created two separate orders

Created two separate orders, both were below free shipping. They were merged together and shipping fee was refunded. Unexpectedly nice thing.

I love the Pajamas that I ordered

I love the Pajamas that I ordered. They are so soft and lightweight and the design of them makes it easier for me to wear. I have a problem with my hands so buttons can be an issue but these tie at the sides so makes it so easy.
I would have given 5 stars but I was expecting them to be made in Japan and they were made in China. However, the workmanship is faultless.
