2m’s mission is to find, sort ,
and single out only those crafts that truly shine as representative of Japanese culture,
those crafts that were created by the local people.
We define these crafts as “ethno-art”.

We have dealt in crafts and arts from Europe and Asia,
but our focus has always been Japanese crafts that evoke the times past and the people’s spirit.

Through the crafts born out of the time-honoured culture of beliefs, minds, and customs,
2m is dedicated to showcasing the crafts that most resonate in terms of beauty.
