Since its founding, Gekkoso has not provided wrapping paper or paper bags to wrap products in. This is because the founder felt that rather than spending money on packaging, he wanted to make the products cheaper for artists who are still not well off financially.
We have encouraged customers to carry their items home in their own bags whenever possible, or have reused paper bags kindly provided by customers or flyers from past solo exhibitions to wrap the items. (Currently, we only offer gift wrapping, which requires an additional fee.)
In today's world where awareness of recycling and reuse has become widespread, Gekkoso has once again decided to officially call for the donation of unused paper bags.
If you have any paper bags that you no longer need at home or at work, please send them to the address below with prepaid shipping. We will make the best use of them to help run our store.

*Size, color, and specifications are not important. Please send 15 or more items by mail. Please refer to the illustrations and refrain from sending items that show signs of excessive use.
*Due to limited space at our Ginza store, we are unable to accept mail orders to the Ginza store. We only accept items brought in directly.
*As a small token of our appreciation, those who help with recycling will receive an Ippuku ticket, which can be used to receive a drink service at any of the food and beverage spaces operated by Gekkoso. Please come and enjoy the hospitality of Gekkoso.
