A brand new book celebrating Japan’s treasured artisans and the regions they call home. From Kyoto’s suburban mask-makers to the swordsmiths of Kanazawa, Shokunin is carefully designed and organised region-by-region, featuring curated itineraries filled with lesser-travelled destinations and local insights.
Japan is home to some of the world’s most treasured 'Shokunin'. Literally translating to ‘artisan’ or ‘craftsperson’ in English, the Japanese meaning runs much deeper. A true Shokunin is someone who dedicates their life to mastering their craft; it’s a rejection of mass-produced standardisation and a personal responsibility to preserve their traditions for future generations.
