My Collectibles are almost everywhere in my home. In show cabinets, on stair case, in living rooms, bedrooms, kitchen, etc. From times to times, I have to spend time admiring them. I do not remember when I started collecting and I am not sure whether I can remember details of how or where I got them. Here's the place where I can keep history of what I love.

Chokin Art Collection from Japan
THE ART OF CHOKIN
Chokin is the ancient Japanese art of engraving copper and gilding it with precious 24K Gold and Silver since the 12th century.
The engravings were orginally created to decorate the armament of SAMURAI warriors.
At least I was able to buy a few souvenirs from Narita Airport on my one night only in Japan on the way back from my short trip to USA last year.
