About us
If you are new to The Japanese Gallery you may be wondering what it’s actually about. The Japanese Gallery was created for several reasons, believe it or not, there are very few websites and little information to find on the subject of Japanese art and antiques. Other than the great museums and the many Japanese art dealers, there are very few websites on collections and the study of Japanese art. Born out of this frustration and the pure love and passion for Japanese art The Japanese Gallery was created.
