As a specialist in antique Japanese art and decorative arts, I have a passion for my profession that I like to share with as many people as possible.
As a lover of Japanese and Korean cultures with "one foot over there", I founded Kogeiya to offer connoisseurs and neophytes attracted by these cultures a selection of decorative collectibles at affordable prices.
With a mixed university education (Business Law and DEA (Master 2) in Art History specialized in the Far East from the University of Paris IV Sorbonne / CREOPS), I was able to shape my experience between France and Japan with the desire to share my love for Japanese aesthetics.
From Japan it was only a short step to Korea... a real favorite for which I also wanted to specialize.
In addition to my Kogeiya gallery, I want to share and discover Japanese and Korean art via Kogei magazine and the eponymous association. I'm also a content creator (streamer) on Twitch and YouTube. Please don't hesitate to contact me directly to find out more.
My specialties:
- Japanese decorative objects & Korean folk art
- Samurai art & Japanese armor
- Japanese sword mounts
- Japanese ceremonial objects
- Buddhist art
- Traditional furniture
- Japanese and Korean crafts (ceramics...) & design
We look forward to hearing from you!
