Japan House London visit part 3

Then I went up to the ground floor and browse around the museum-like shop...

Hand-made brooms.


Products from different companies.

Then I see more of the works by that copperware/metalware studio.
(small exhibition of Gyokusen Do)

A bigger pot next to this display has  price tag in 5 digit of GBP.
But it is a craft work or even art with copper, silver, gold.

A book of the craftsmaster's works

For more details of his work and the studio:

That is from the website of that copperware studio.


It is nothing like my original itinerary of the day trip,
but I really appreciate it ---
as I have been yearning for art-craft-design activities.
 ( well, I like glass and metal )

Due to the time limit, I found the bus stop for bus number 9.
This bus goes pass Kensington Garden which is near the Kensington Palace,
and Hyde Park. I should visit them next year or so.


The bus also went pass Royal Albert Hall.



 Seen while I was on bus...
Didn't see the name.


Got off the bus at Trafalgar Square.
Walked pass the Canada House, National Gallery.

National Gallery & St.Martin-in-the-field church.


My 2nd target today -- Japan Centre.
I wanted to get some food grocery there.
