"What is Japanese Style?" This book is the result of interviews conducted at workshops throughout Japan, seeking an answer to this question. It explores traditional tools used in Japanese life, examining who makes them and how. By investigating this, the book attempts to get to the heart of "Japanese style." This is a first edition, published in 1990. The condition is fair. The pages inside are clean with no yellowing, but the cover and obi (paper band) show yellowing, discoloration, scuff marks, and small wrinkles. Please refer to the photos. Thank you very much.
