We Have Never Been To Japan,

but would like to,


not only for the famous sites to see, but also to walk around the back streets, where apparently tiles are used so often on the roofs of homes to the fencing around them, as you might expect, if you wanted one or two or perhaps half a dozen tiles for a home project it would be pretty much impossible to buy just a few tiles,

but not any longer, 

the Tile Kiosk is based in the town of Tajimi (Gifu prefecture) which has a 1300-year history of producing ceramic tiles for industrial use, it is the home of Mino ware, which was born out of the region’s rich soil and high quality minerals. The Tile Kiosk’s mission is to bring this history, and the region’s diverse output of forms and glazes, to the home,

so if you want just one tile to add to your rooms décor,

for your own slightly different unique look, this is the shop to go to, I found the story on Hakoniwa, will we ever go to Japan? I have no idea, but it is on the list! as an aside if you are going Japanese this company ships internationally, Nihon Ichiban, I have not used them but they have an amazing amount of Japanese products for sale.
