A Sip of Mt. Fuji with Tajima Glass

Tajima Glass : Mt. Fuji Glass
Tajima Glass : Hoei glass

Although they use modern technology to guarantee precision, each piece is meticulously handmade, ensuring that every item is one of a kind. A popular product are their Mt. Fuji inspired drink glasses. The Mt. Fuji Glass has the holy mountain carved in the bottom, while the Hoei glass mimics the landmark’s iconic shape. The recommended Hoei glass also has a sakura colored version that can be bought individually or in a set. No matter which you choose, you have to imagine anything tastes better when drinking out of a mountain.

Perfect Ribs Anywhere Thanks to Snow Peak

Dutch ovens

Dutch ovens are a common sight in many kitches and on campgrounds, but you’ve probably never seen one like this. The Micro Capsule, from the family-run Niigata brand Snow Peak, is a small cast iron oven designed to cook long foods such as ribs, fish, asparagus, and more. It especially excels at cooking meat, as the compact size ensures that all parts are evenly grilled. For those who want to pack light when camping, it serves as the perfect tool for late night cooking.

Race Kansai Style with Choro Q

Choro Q

Takara Tomy is one of the most popular toy makers in Japan. Focusing on cars, they have entertained Japanese youth for over 60 years. Even adults are impressed by their level of detail and creative designs. The Choro Q brand specializes in tiny vehicles with pullback motors. Valuing uniqueness over realism, this brand is very distinct from Takara Tomy’s other offerings. This takoyaki-shaped car was originally only available in Osaka, but thanks to Yahoo! Auctions anyone can enjoy this tiny octoball racer.

Nanoblock’s Tiny Wonders

Think Lego, but smaller. The rising popularity of Nanoblock can be attributed to their diverse designs. Animals, historical sites, pop culture, no matter your interest there is assuredly a set for you. Why just settle with one set though when you could have 26? Yahoo! Auctions excels in bundles, and this auction has over two dozen Nanoblock sets to tackle yourself or gift to friends. Most are animals, but instruments, Santa Claus, and the popular Japanese souvenir daruma are also included.
