SHOGADO

Founded in 1964 in Kyoto, SHOGADO creates Japanese paper goods that celebrate the beauty of traditional craftsmanship through a contemporary perspective.

Rather than simply preserving historical patterns, SHOGADO reinterprets classic Japanese motifs into fresh, modern designs. These are brought to life by highly skilled Kyoto artisans using traditional printing techniques and carefully selected washi papers, including renowned papers from Echizen and Kurotani.

The result is a collection of stationery and lifestyle products that feel timeless yet perfectly suited to modern living—objects that bring quiet elegance and the warmth of craftsmanship into everyday moments.

Respect for traditional techniques, premium materials, and responsible production lies at the heart of SHOGADO. By creating products designed to be treasured and used for years, the company continues to connect Japan’s rich cultural heritage with contemporary life around the world.
