JAPANESE Ceramics GALORE!🤩Lacquerware, glassware etc. at BOOKOFF Super Bazaar✨THRIFTING in JAPAN🇯🇵

Lots of ceramics in today’s video, plus the lacquerware panel I’d been eyeing for some time was reduced to 110yen (75¢). Super happy! Nice surprise to also find the frame was a vintage designer item…probably has more value than the lacquered piece itself✨
I’ve added estimated prices in USD($), so you can gauge how much things cost😊
Thank you so much for watching and hope you enjoy the content🥰

Thrift stores give such an interesting insight into a culture don't they? Loved the laquer panel. I don't always love laquer but that piece is beautiful. Great video again!

[@plauditecives]

Was so looking forward to your current video. I love everything you show us, and such a wonderful culture/history/geography lesson that comes with it! I am still marvelling at learning about the stand for the tea whisk from your last video. I'm firming up plans for a visit to Tokyo later this year (from Toronto) so am looking forward to exploring some of the places you have introduced us to. Thank you.

[@tokyotique]

So happy you're enjoying the content! Thank you so much for watching and for your comment😊

[@girlfromtokyo]

Hi there ! In Showa period, especially 1970 to 1980's , tea cup sets and plates/vases were used for souvenir gifts from weddings or company events. That's how many were unused and maybe still in beautiful boxes. Some households had 4 or 5 boxes stuck up in kitchen corners. Also be careful about assuming some of the paintings & arts as Japanese. Many are Made in China.

[@tokyotique]

Thank you for watching and for your comment😊

[@Skeptic2006]

Does anyone have recommendations for thrift shopping in Japan from overseas that doesn't involve high shipping fees like Buyee? I gave it a try, but the shipping costs ended up being quite a setback.

[@natscapalad4215]

wow...love all your video and hope you also check some vintage toys as well...God bless always and stay safe...🥰🥰🥰

[@tokyotique]

Thank you for watching and liking the content and for your kind comment!😊

[@judytacyn6085]

Are these items a mix of new and preowned, contemporary and vintage?

[@tokyotique]

All items at Book Off Super Bazaar are pre-owned and most of them used, ranging from 20th century vintage to contemporary.

[@Lidsssssss]

Can you list your Mercari?

[@tokyotique]

Thank you for watching and for your comment. I currently only list on Mercari Japan for the domestic market, but hope to have something running for the international market soon😊
