In Japan, people think of beauty in levels—from blatant, brash, and bold to the ideal of beauty: Shibui. “Shibui” means the type of beauty that doesn’t need announcement; its quality speaks for itself. It involves the maturity, complexity, history, and patina which only time can bring—like a fine vintage wine. Shibui objects have a history which they convey. They speak of understated elegance, utility (each piece serves an important function), rare beauty, and unobtrusive sophistication. Shibui brings a deeper meaning to our lives, and we hope to share that richness with you. Collectors and designers alike are drawn to Shibiu’s wide assortment of offerings for reasons as varied as our inventory: from wanting to enhance an environment and elevate the level of beauty in their lives to acquiring a secure financial investment. Shibui means thorough quality, so we hold both our products and our service to the highest standards. At Shibui we believe in quality customer service.
