(the photo shows the actual fridge.)

Voodoo Dolls

Cute Voodoo Doll Straps and Keychains are now available both online and at our stores!
Please make sure the size info on each prodcut page, as there are two sizes.

FYI: we still do not know when we can get some products back in stock.

Magic Sponge

Have you heard of a sponge containing melamine?
This magic sponge can remove stain on your cups, plates and even bathroom tiles!

What's so great about this product is that you don't need any detergent. Yes, only water will do. Are you skeptical about it? Just give it a try. You will love it!

This pack contains 2 sponges. We also have a longer style which can be cut into any size you like.


By the way, we changed the blog URL to http://blog.ichibankanusa.com. You will be automatically directed even if you still use http://ichibankanusa.blogspot.com.

Japanese Cell Phone Holder

An ocean cargo full of Ichiban Kan goodies arrived at our warehouse last week.
These soft cell phone holders are an example of cool new stuff we recently imported. The cell phone holders are made of 100% cotton, padded inside, and designed with distinctive facial expressions. There are only three in the photo, but we have about 10 different designs.
Great for home and office. Available for $3.50 each at our stores now!

San Francisco store is reborn

Ichiban Kan San Francisco store installed new shelves early this week! Staff are now busy unpacking and placing products to go back to normal store operation this weekend.
The store looks pretty sleek with new shelves and waxed floor. :)

Visit us @ SF Japantown if you are in the bay area!
