The image "antiquing" conjures is usually that of long drives through the New England countryside to find quaint, cluttered shops run by white-haired, eccentric locals. This is only because a Sunday drive to Japan is out of the question. Fortunately this shop offers an incredible wealth of prewar Japanese items, ranging from bamboo umbrellas to decorative prints, with a lot of amazing vintage kimonos and fabrics in between. The great drawback is that you have to manually enter catalog numbers into the order form, assuming you can find it. If all else fails, go to the Site Map, then click on Order Form (Web Site Secure SSL ordering). It’s a hassle, but worth it.
