This mini shamoji, or “rice scoop,” will always remind you of your visit to Japan, or make a thoughtful souvenir for family members, or even just be a personal message to yourself—let your creativity flow!

Craft Your Own Unique Lucky Charm at Sogo Hiroshima!

Have you ever wanted to create your own, one-of-a-kind protective charm just for yourself? Now's your chance at the 300-year-old Zen temple, 'Tokujuji,' on Miyajima Island.

Practice the art of calligraphy by inscribing your heartfelt wishes onto a mini 'shamoji' (rice scoop) charm, blessed at the temple. There are also special stamps provided for your wishes, so you needn’t worry about your ink and brush skills.

Coordinate your individually crafted talisman with a handcrafted pouch made from carefully untied kimono fabric, tied by a colorful cord—a keepsake designed uniquely by you, for you! It also makes for an original, thoughtful souvenir for friends at home.
