GEKKOSO (Gekkoso Art Store)
This long-established art supply store was founded in 1917. The married couple Tekkan and Akiko Yosano loved the founder Hyozo Furuhashimoto, so they chose the name Gekkoso. The sign you see today is the original written by Akiko Yosano. Their Friend Calling Horn logo was the idea of the cultured class who used to visit. They produce all the art supplies they sell, and 26 of them are patented. There are several galleries at the shop, as well as an area for artist presentations.
