Edoya

“Edoya” is located in Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku, Tokyo. It is a long-standing, specialty brush store with a history of 300 years, dating all the way back to 1718.
After training in the art of brush-making in Kyoto, the founder of Edoya went to Tokyo to establish his business. The current building, with a modern concrete construction and wooden interior, was built in 1925 after the original building was damaged by the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923.
Edoya carries all kinds of brushes, from handicraft brushes for craftspeople, and housework-related cleaning brushes, all the way to cosmetic face and hair brushes. The store is lined with brushes of all shapes, sizes and purposes. It's fun to just look at everything in stock!
Once you take one in hand, you'll realize; each and every one is a product of abundant knowledge and craftsmanship, that has been cultivated ever since the Edo period. They're all worth an experience!
