Having
been a collector of Japanese items for many years, and having
had the opportunity to share this passion with people locally,
we thought it nice to be able to share this with a wider
audience.
Doing exhibitions on a small scale
in, amongst others, the Japanese Garden in Buenos Aires,
Argentina, we hope that all those visiting our site will enjoy
the images of these exhibitions.
You can find some generic
information of subjects we enjoy and we hope you will find those
interesting.
Please enjoy browsing through our
site and feel free to contact us with comments, questions or
requests.
Regards,

FUYUya in BUENOS AIRES,
ARGENTINA, 2005 - 2011

For personal reasons we moved
to Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2005, where we initially
started up the business again over the internet and from
home.
The name was changed from FUYU
to FUYUya, which now includes the japanese reference for
business or shop, "YA". Later we had a dedicated
section in a flat in Avenida Pueyrredón in the center
of Buenos Aires.
Our activities became well
known because of our connection with the Japanese Garden in
Buenos Aires. With their help we organised several
exhibitions about different styles of kimono, kimono fashion
shows and dress-up activities of famous Argentinians for
publicity reasons. To publicise the exhibitions we were
asked for several interviews for radio, television and
papers.
We also were asked to provide
kimonos for several adverts, some even international, and
other activities related with japanese kimono. Our extensive
page on Press will show you most of these activities.

FUYU in MADRID, SPAIN,
2003 - 2005
Read
more>
<Read

We moved to Madrid in Spain
the end of 2001 and in 2003 we opened our first real shop.
We called it FUYU, japanese for "winter" being my
surname. It was well known as a specialist shop in kimono.
The shop was located in a street called "Calle San
Lorenzo" in the centre of Madrid.
We appeared in many TV and
radio programs and in magazines because of the uniqueness
and quality of the more elaborate kimonos and its
accessories.
We also rented and sold kimonos to several film, advert and
theatre productions, for example a version of "Madame
Butterfly" and a scene in the film "Capitán
Alatriste" which unfortuntately was cut out.

Our history begins in London
in the late nineties, when we did some small selling
activities from our front room in Willesden Green while
getting experience in selling kimonos in a well known kimono
shop in Golborne Road in London, ASAHI, which is now closed.
