Happa Stand blends the Japanese traditional concepts of tea and vessels with the chic and modern lifestyle.

The name originates from the Japanese word “Happa” meaning leaves to cause nature and environmental awareness. Also, the word “Happa” simply has a happy vibe and could be written as “88” and could be pronounced Happa. The number 8 has been known for fortune and good luck both in the Eastern and Western cultures throughout the years.

Happa Stand’s flagship store locates in Mino city of Gifu Prefecture, known for the preservation of ancient Japanese cityscapes. The store which used to be an old residence that was built more than 150 years ago has been renovated with beams and pillars left from the original construction.

Happa Stand suggests the “Iki” lifestyle, which is the Japanese version of chicness through their products and store.
