Rare & Hard-to-Find Supplies from Japan

St. Louis Art Supply is proud to be one of America's leading suppliers of Japanese art materials. Our selection goes way beyond the basic sumi inks and washi paper — we stock a huge array of Japanese watercolors, washi tapes, studio accessories, pens, pencils, stationery, and office supplies.

Why are we so committed to supplying products made in Japan? Two reasons: first, Japan has the world's most exciting art supply and stationery industry, with much greater domestic demand than other markets. Second, the Japanese manufacturing sector is known around the world for its efficiency, accuracy, and outstanding value compared to other major export countries. We collect the best supplies in the world, and many of the best-in-class items in our industry come from Japan.
