“Gallery Kawari” was started as a small equipment blacksmith in 1907.

Now it is renovated as a gallery next to the iron foundry but it still remains the feel of the old Japanese-style housing.

You can enjoy not only industrial goods but also metallic art works and interiors we produced here at “Gallery Kawari”
