[Announcement for the Next Exhibition]

Hello.
Yesterday felt warm, yet today I found myself reaching for a thick jacket as the chill returned — such are the shifting temperatures of this season.
Day by day, the cold deepens, and before we know it, winter has arrived.
This stole is one of those pieces that turns the winter chill into something to look forward to.
Whether wrapped around your neck, draped over your shoulders, or laid across your lap, it brings a gentle warmth to both body and mind.
From November into December, our special exhibition will center on the “Gara-bou Stole,” woven from organic cotton by Suno & Morrison. Alongside the stoles, we will also display and offer for sale a selection of baskets that pair beautifully with them — including walnut basket bags, akebi baskets, and peeled willow baskets.
In addition to the versatile medium size, the stoles also come in a scarf size that is perfect for everyday use, as well as a generously sized blanket that can be used as bedding.
Suno & Morrison’s original fabrics come in a rich variety of colors and patterns, and choosing the size and design that feels just right is a small joy in itself.
Made from 100% cotton, they are soft and gentle on the skin, making them suitable even for those with sensitivities or for babies. They are wonderful for personal use, for sharing with someone close, or as a thoughtful gift.
We will also have a selection of warm, handwoven baskets that pair beautifully with the Gara-bou stoles. From Iwate, we are featuring basket bags made from sawagurumi walnut.
Each bag is a one-of-a-kind piece, woven by combining the front and back of the walnut bark, giving every basket its own unique pattern and character.
From Nagano, we will receive a variety of akebi vine baskets.
Along with basket bags and larger handled baskets, there will also be practical storage baskets that are easy to use in daily life. They make wonderful blanket holders as well.
We will also be showcasing many baskets made from peeled willow, brought in from Lithuania.
Their fresh yet warm appearance pairs beautifully with the Gara-bou stoles, and the combination of a stole and a basket creates a gentle harmony that suits the quiet landscapes of winter.
To accompany this exhibition, we will also have Lithuanian herbal teas, wooden coasters, stopper clips, and miniature baskets by Gintas available in the shop.
They come in several designs, making it enjoyable to choose one for yourself, for your family, or for guests. They also make lovely gifts.
Here is the link to the online shop for the Lithuanian birch coasters.
The coasters can also be enjoyed as ornaments. They look lovely as decorations on a Christmas tree as well. 
The herbal teas from the Lithuanian tea brand “My Cup of Tea” will also be restocked. Each blend has a wonderful aroma, made from a mix of freshly dried tea leaves and herbs.
Here is the page for the “My Cup of Tea” blended herbal teas.
These stopper clips are also available. They are handy for closing opened bags of herbal tea, snacks, or any other items you’re using little by little. 
A small, palm-sized basket woven from peeled willow. 
It is a miniature version of a larger harvest basket, scaled down to a charming, compact size. Despite its small form, it is sturdy enough to hold keys, lip balm, and other small essentials — a surprisingly dependable little basket.
Please enjoy these pieces — delightful to look at, gentle on the body, and uplifting to the spirit.
We look forward to welcoming you.
