from 17 reviewsA face only a parent could love… such a beautiful piece, with the celadon green done no justice by a photograph alone. Packaged with care, arrived in a timely fashion. Perched on my bookshelf next to a wonderful sake bottle I purchased alongside it.

This is my second purchase from Kanso House and I was so pleased with the first I came back for another. I have always liked the figure and story of Daikoku and was so pleased to see this very fine figure listed. The size is quite impressive and very nicely carved and has a lovely patina. The package arrived quickly and very professionally wrapped. Plus a nice note was enclosed. Thank you both for this handsome figure to add to my collection.

This blend of sandalwood is perfection. Subtle and fragrant. Beautifully presented on delivery. Bravo

I was intrigued by this temple , its story, its simplicity. I am thrilled with it in my home .

A beautiful little sculpture . I love purchasing from Kanso House. Always an enjoyable moment when I unwrap the delivery. Perfection

Beautiful Japanese calligraphy box! Thank you 😊

We've had our Hinoki stool for a couple of months now and it still brings a lovely cypress smell to the bathroom. It's the perfect size to sit on and dries fully overnight, no issues with dampness. It's lovely craftmanship and well worth the money.

Absolutley adore this item and equally adore Kanso House . Will be watching closely and purchasing more from
this lovley family run business on the Mornington Peninsual

This lovely family owned business on the Mornington Peninsula is highly knowledgeable on all things Japan and is of the highest standard . Purchased a wonderful Tobako Bon (Tobacco Box) recently and adore it . From initial enquiry to delivery I couldn't have been happier . Hats off to all at Kanso House . Will come and visit one day .

The stool arrived promptly and I was happy with the quality.

I love my kyōtō andon solar lantern!
I was a student in Japan way back in 1976, and the inclusion of this lantern amongst the strappy green leaves of my intimate, meditative rear garden make me nostalgic for those halcyon days. The lantern oozes beauty, simplicity and the blending of traditional and contemporary sensibilities of Japanese design. I appreciate Daniel and Candice's keen eye for sophisticated and practical aesthetic. I'll be trawling through their generously stocked products for my next indulgent purchase ...

Beautiful wares and speedy delivery. Very very happy

So happy with these spoons, definitely worth it

Great pottery dishes, very happy with them!
