History The whole story began in 1986 when I went to Seoul in South Korea in order to teach French. I had found this job thanks to a couple of Korean friends who had studied in Belgium. At the end of 1987 our first Korean container landed on Belgian soil. My mother, who was helped by my brother, opened the shop in Brussels. Three years later, as my brother preferred the joys of the paraglider to the arts of the morning calm country, I came back to Belgium to help my mother and my job did arouse a real passion. Meanwhile I met a Japanese lady in Spain who was also fascinated with her patrimony and who became my wife. She made me discovered Japan and its immense cultural heritage. Since then, we spent there every year between 2 and 3 months in order to collect a great number of items we bring back to Europe.
Restoration As we find most of our items in countries and even sometimes directly from private houses, it is vital to restore or at least to clean up most of them. To do so, the restorer Guy Moretti is in charge with his team of the restoration workshop of Schelma since 1988. Thanks to his know-how, we manage to restore them without damaging their original finishing and patina.
