Eszette Block Print, a brand born from traditional techniques and her arrangements, will open a pop-up store on the 3rd floor of GINZA SIX = event space from June 2nd (Wednesday) to June 22nd (Tuesday). This print is all handmade and carefully crafted by craftsmen stamping wood carving blocks. Traditional techniques that have been lost in modern times.
