In Japan, Feng Shui 風水 (a Chinese thought of getting luck) has been a boom for the last couple of years.
One of my friends told me how to turn luck in one's favor following the way of Feng Shui's idea.
If you arrange flowers of certain colours in a crystal vase and put it toward the south-east direction, you would have your day.
The colour of flowers is important. You should have 4 colours in the vase, which are red, white, pink, and yellow together.
You have to take care of them not being dried out or gone bad.

My favorite crystal vase in our shop is Corolle of Baccarat.
Please see the photo of if.
I bet you'll like it.

How was your weekend?
In Japan, yesterday was a national holiday, a Health Sports Day. So we had 3 consecutive holidays including Saturday and Sunday.
Last Saturday we had a visitor from Germany, a glass manufacturer and spent several hours for business meetings.
We have visitors from overseas from time to time.
I like to meet people overseas because I feel like receiving some exotic mood through them.
I am very interested in crosscultural differences, so in that sense, the current job must be my ideal job.
What I learned from last meeting was that eating raw fish was no longer limited to Japanese culture.
I understand that Sushi is very popular overseas, though.
I was very glad that I could actually experinece the fact for my self.
It was a great business meeting.
Thank you for coming all the way to Kyoto.

Today, I would like to introduce one of my favorite porcelain.
I am in love with Princess series of Royal Copenhagen right now. So far my collection has been a pair of 24cl/8oz tea cup & saucer and a covered sugar bowl.
It is a very lovely and feminine line, I think.
Same as my personality????

Anyway, please take a look with our photos.
Thank you.

The nature of my job as an importer means that it sometimes happens the delayed arrival of our purchase from overseas due to the inevitable circumstances.
We had an order from our customer that should be delivered by 6 pm yesterday.
And the arrival of our purchase had been delayed and arrived our head office at 2:00 pm.
The order was 130 pieces with present-wrapping.
Around 4:00pm we have completed our wrappings and started to deliver them to Osaka. However, it was a rush hour and difficult to deliver immediately.
When our staff called the office to tell the completion of delivery, it was 2min. before 6 o'clock.
What a clse call it was.
But we made it.

Thanks to the united efforts of a number of people who gave us hands on this matter.
