"The mid-June, when the acacia trees lining the streets start to sprout white tassels, marks the boundary between late spring and early summer.

As usual, midsummer-like days arrive around this time, but it's too early to think that summer has arrived, as soon as the weather cools down again and the chilly days continue, making you want to turn on the heater. This is jokingly referred to as a "lilac chill." "Rairakku", or lilac in French, comes in purple and white and can be found in every home's garden, but it is a flower that suits Sapporo well.

Before the war, starting with the Sapporo Shrine festival on June 15th, police officers carrying sabres would wrap the tops of their hats in white cloth and change into white clothes, which was also one of the signs of summer."

Frequently Asked Questions:

Is this artwork original? How is it framed?

Check the "Technique" field above:

Oil, Acrylic, Watercolor, or Fabric — a unique, one-of-a-kind original, delivered to us directly by the artist and framed in California.

Handmade Woodblock Print, Silkscreen, Etching, or Lithograph — an original print. The artist carved or cut the matrix and pulled each impression by hand; there is no painting it was copied from. Each is signed and numbered by the artist within a limited edition.

Fine Art Print, Giclée, Canvas Print, or Metal Print — a high-quality, museum-grade reproduction of an original work fabricated here in San Francisco.

Check the "Framing" field above for this piece.

The design is our own — museum-grade, archival, and always real wood, never veneer or composite.

The species suits the work — cherry, ash, maple, oak, poplar, or hinoki cypress. Chosen per artist, not to a house style.

Where it's made — Kuriyagawa's and Namiki's frames are made in Japan. Everything else is framed in the United States, from hardwood milled by a third-generation family workshop that supplies exhibition frames to museums.

Every piece arrives ready to hang, with hardware and a level included.

Can you help me visualize the artwork? How do I buy an artwork I like?

Send us a photo of your wall and we'll place the artwork into it, to scale, so you can see exactly how it looks in your room. No charge, no obligation.

Want to see more? We'll send a video of the piece from every angle. Email us — or see examples on our YouTube channel.

Add to Cart and check out securely on the site. We take credit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Shop Pay.

Or just email us. We'll answer any questions and send an invoice — no account needed.

Can you help me install the artwork? What's your return policy?

In the SF Bay Area — yes, in person. We'll deliver and hang it for you, free of charge. Just ask.

Anywhere else — every package includes what you need: hanging hardware, a level, and a microfiber cloth. Everything arrives ready to hang.

30 days, no questions asked — on original paintings and on original prints. Return it in its original condition and we'll issue a full refund, less return shipping.

The one exception — fine art prints and giclées are made to order for you, so those sales are final.
