The History of Saibundo

The name "Saibundo" comes from my grandfather's shop, which opened in 1902 as a mounting store in Ueno, Tokyo (Ikenohata, Taito Ward). In 1990, we began selling art supplies, paper, brushes, and other stationery and office supplies in Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture. We currently carry a wide range of gift items, including stationery and miscellaneous goods.

  • Saibundo and Kurofuneya

    The owner's grandfather, Iijima Katsujiro, ran a mounting shop called "Saibundo" in Ueno and was on friendly terms with Takehisa Yumeji. He renamed the shop "Kurofuneya" after a painting he had done for him. The name "Saibundo" comes from his grandfather's shop.
