Gift Shop / Bookstore

Browse our Gift Shop for something authentic from Japan for your family and friends – or for your home and yourself – and you’ll find an abundance of beguiling possibilities. 

For children, there are multi-hued Japanese kites and carp streamers and traditional wooden toys. Give an adult a spiky kenzan (a florist's frog for holding plant materials upright), an artfully hand-forged pair of clippers, and a subtly refined ceramic, stone, or metal flower vase, and set them on the road to a passion for Ikebana.

There are porcelain and lacquer cups for tea and sake at your table, and chopsticks in fetching colors and finishes. Authentic tea ceremony sets and hand-painted folding fans will please collectors on your gift list, while the artists will appreciate rice paper, ink stones, and handmade brushes for creating calligraphy and ink-wash paintings. Handsome books on Japanese customs, culture, history, and home and garden design will keep the readers you know happily content.

One thing you won’t find in the Gift Shop: sales tax. All products are exempt from it because Yume is a nonprofit. 100% of the proceeds will go towards Yume Japanese Gardens’ maintenance.

And now you are able to make your gift selections online too and pay electronically, further enhancing your shopping experience.
