Matured, but Cute and a bit lucky

Unique shop located on the back street of Kagurazaka

Genuine good shops are sometimes hiding on back streets rather than exposing themselves on main streets. "Magnet Point" is one of such shops, located on the back street of cozy Kagurazaka town. The shop master, who used to be a display coordinator, says the concept of her shop is "Matured, but Cute and a bit lucky".

 

 

 

For example, how about these Daruma figures? 

Daruma is a traditional lucky figure. People purchase Daruma figures when they make wishes. Original and traditional Daruma don't smile at all. However, in this shop  they are giving a cute smile in maturing fashion still having a sense of luck. 

How cute these towels are!! However the charms of these towels are not only their design but also their quality.

 

These hand towels are made from the same material as Imabari towel, which is known for using high rank cotton to absorb water quickly.

The towel of this shop utilizes left over thread of high quality Imabari towel.  

These are all hand made and along with the shop's concept, "Matured, but Cute and a bit lucky."
