Postalco
On my recent trip to Tokyo one store that was extremely high on my list of " must visits " was Postalco.
Started in 2000 it is Postalco’s stationary products that I love the best, they also make and stock leathergoods, bags and a small line of clothing.
Jotters, envelopes and paper are all Made in Japan and possess a mid century feel in terms of colour and handle.
Utilitarian products for which the form and function is their true beauty.
Needless to say I stocked up and just hope I have enough to tide me over till my next trip.
