★★★ Catalog Update Notice ★★★
Second Wave of New Products!!!
Doll Catalog with Newly Added Items!
“Washi-ya no Ishou Kokeshi”!!
Featuring Ninja, Samurai, Koiki (Stylish)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Following our first new product introduction (the omikuji), here’s the second wave!
Our second release is the “kokeshi series.”
We’ve launched the new “Washi-ya no Ishou Kokeshi” series, leveraging our strengths as a “washi maker.”
Until now, the kokeshi in our “costume kokeshi” lineup had wooden heads. In these new designs, the head part incorporates washi.
Currently, due to the sharp increase in foreign tourists and a shortage of artisans, demand for kokeshi is exceeding supply across the industry.
We created this “Washi-ya no Ishou Kokeshi Series” hoping to contribute more to the supply of kokeshi dolls.
It’s designed especially for inbound visitors, with English imagery on the outer box.
Sales will begin in March—pre-orders now open!!
These items are also available for OEM!
If you have a desired face design or kimono color, please feel free to contact us ^^
We appreciate your consideration!
◆First new product◆
We’ve added new styles to our ceramic omikuji series, which serve both as fortune-telling items and decorative ornaments!
Includes a special display box and POP for promotions!
They’re also popular among inbound travelers.
／＼／＼／＼／＼／＼／＼／＼／＼／＼
【Purchase Perks】 Now on Campaign!

[Recommended 2025 Hina Doll Highlights]
■For 2025, we’ve leveraged our washi expertise to create large and medium multi-tiered Hina dolls, including three-tier and two-tier models.
■We use premium white wood platforms for Ishikawa Shigyo’s original tiered Hina sets (three-tier and two-tier).
■Ishikawa Shigyo’s designs are unique—we tested many prototypes to achieve beautifully designed stands.
■Among them, “Yuu” is the result of years of prototyping, culminating in an elegant Hina doll. It’s compact yet considered large by our standards.
■Each series is given an individual name—“Yuu,” “Rin,” “Tsumugi,” and the glass-based “Midori.”
■Every design is original to Ishikawa Shigyo, suitable for both Japanese and Western interior styles. Compact and easy to place anywhere.
■Enjoy “experiential consumption” with our DIY kits.
Our handmade kits, inspired by customer feedback, are very popular. They’re accessible to all ages, thanks to our craft expertise.
They’re also widely used for workshops and events.
■Popular Items—We carry everything from new items to longtime favorites, including popular shimenawa (twisted straw) hanging ornaments, mobile dolls, DIY beanbag dolls, and more.
■For detailed product info, please see our separate product profiles for your promotional use.

Our Original Hand-Dyed Mino Washi Series is Selling Great!
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Since our founding in 1902, we’ve consistently worked with Mino washi. Our expertise allows us to bring you proud, carefully crafted papers!
They’re very popular at our direct stores!
Our newly developed Mino washi yuzen prints keep coming!
Customers rave about their “brilliant color,” “luxurious look,” and “perfect texture and thickness.”
They can be used for countless purposes—book covers, small boxes, accessories, screens, backgrounds, décor, crafts, and more.
Using Mino washi from a region with a 1,300-year history, we employ a Kyoto-based dye house for hand-printing each color, delivering the exquisite brilliance of yuzen dyed washi.
Because each color requires a separate stencil and dye formula, everything is hand-printed by experienced artisans.
It’s a masterpiece of traditional craft, demanding the skill of experts at every step—from the paper itself to the dyeing process.
Our washi is thin, lightweight, and durable.
Its vivid designs and colors, impossible to duplicate in fabric, make it ideal for gifts, artistic creations, wallpaper, mats, and displays.
Minimum order: 1 sheet. Please let us know your pattern number. We can even make custom prints.
For more details, contact our Circulation Department.

A Note from the Staff ~Sato’s Castle~
“Classroom Observation”
Thank you for your continued support.
This is Sato, reminiscing about my own elementary school days.
Recently, I attended an open class at my children’s elementary school.
My daughter is in first grade and my son is in fourth.
First-graders are just the sweetest: as soon as she noticed me, she gave a huge smile and dashed over (practically tackling me!).
Fourth graders act more reserved in front of friends—but my son still came around shyly, which is adorable in its own way.
He usually never talks about school at home, so it was nice to see him in class.
Meanwhile, my daughter never stops talking at home, so sometimes I wish she’d calm down a bit…haha.
I hope they both continue to stay happy and healthy throughout their short but special elementary school years.
This month’s newsletter highlights our second new product introduction:
The “Washi-ya no Ishou Kokeshi” series!
With the huge rise in foreign tourists and a shortage of kokeshi artisans, demand outstrips supply.
We’ve launched the new ninja, samurai, and “koiki (stylish)” designs to help meet the demand for kokeshi as much as possible.
They also feature English text on the packaging for inbound customers.
They’ll be on sale from March, with pre-orders now open! With a purchase perk offer!
Please consider ordering!
These kokeshi and new ceramic omikuji items are featured in our doll catalog ↓ (kokeshi appear from p.17 onward):
