"Tile" is lurking in this
The roof tiles, which have a history of 1400 years in Japan, are attractive for their unique beauty called "Ibushi silver" in addition to their durability to survive the rain and wind. However, due to changes in the housing environment, the chances of seeing it are decreasing.
A new brand "icci KAWARA PRODUCTS" that proposes the charm of such tiles as daily necessities is born. The first item is on sale from today (June 5th).
