How did I get interested in Nafuda?
As the founder of Soto Sabisu I spent two years firstly trying to source a manufacturer in Europe to commission my own Nafudakake and then deciding to manufacture my own.
Not being able to find a supplier, I decided that as a club karate instructor, qualified joiner and student of “Nihongo” (the Japanese language) I was probably as well placed as anyone to fill this “gap” in the market place.
It took me eighteen months to develop a commercial version of the Nafudakake that was ready to bring to the market.
Soto Sabisu is now able to receive commissions for these exclusive, fine pieces of joinery / art, where Eastern tradition meets Western cultures.
Our range has expanded when customers asked if we were able to produce a self inking version of Japanese seal stamps, provide assistance with graphic design for Japanese words and logos and inquired if we could produce a virtual Nafudakake.
In 2017 our range expanded again to include the Modular Curved Nafudakake (MCN) a modern contemporary twist on a classic design.
