Shop

Our shop is located in Fukuoka, Japan. It’s a very small shop, but we are often praised for the wide variety of items we offer for both individual customers and businesses.

Studio1156 is named after our address in the 'Haruyoshi' area. In Japanese, ‘1156’ can be read as ‘EE-koh-roh’ - meaning ‘a good time’ or ‘just the right moment’. We hope you’ll drop by whenever the timing feels perfect for you!
