Crafts Bilingual Guide: Japanese Craftsmanship (Bilingual Guide To Japan)

Review(0)

Categories:Japanese Culture

100 Japanese masterpieces introduced in English and photos

Approximately 100 world-class "Made in Japan" crafts are introduced in full color, one item per page, with easy-to-understand explanations in both Japanese and English. From casual souvenirs to works of art, this is a visual handbook that has never been seen before, allowing you to enjoy viewing and deepening your understanding.
The book is organized by theme: Chapter 1, "Crafts for play'' (dolls, chiyogami, etc.), Chapter 2, "Crafts for clothing'' (kimonos, combs, fans, etc.), Chapter 3, "Crafts for food'' (ceramics, cooking utensils, iron kettles, etc.), and Chapter 4, "Crafts for living'' (tatami mats, noren, lanterns, etc.), and a glossary is also included at the end of the book.
Volume 6 of the "Bilingual Guide" series, which is popular for being useful for traditional culture information and English learning. The series is popular at tourist destinations and airport bookstores, with foreign readers saying it's easy to read and understand, and they want to buy it and take it home. I would definitely like to have all the volumes for inbound tourism measures.

[Recommended information from the editor]
Popular souvenirs for foreign visitors to Japan include affordable sweets, stationery, and drug cosmetics, but recently there has been a rapid increase in the number of repeat customers who are looking for a "handmade feel" that cannot be obtained from mass-produced products.
Craftsmanship, eco-friendly materials, and subtle beauty. This book allows you to rediscover the charm of crafts that are disappearing from everyday life from a foreigner's perspective.
