Salvatore Piccolo is visiting!


On Saturday, May 27th, Salvatore Piccolo, a renowned shirtmaker from Naples, Italy, visited Salon de Shimaji.

They have traveled a long distance to bring with them a Neapolitan shirt that has impressed even Mr. Shimaji, and a novelty item: a pocket square signed by both Mr. Shimaji and Mr. Piccolo. Currently, Salon de Shimaji is giving these away to customers who purchase a Salvatore Piccolo shirt.
At the salon, they savored the original tea blended by Ms. Shimaji, along with chocolate and spicy highballs, before leaving feeling refreshed and happy.


Shimaji : "The shirts Piccolo makes are truly amazing! The design and materials are top-notch! He even made a pocket square using the same material. Please take this opportunity to try one on!"
*Please note that the number of pocket squares is limited and they will be discontinued once they run out.


Salvatore Piccolo shirts, various styles, ¥35,640 each.

Shimaji: "When you find something this beautiful, buy it without hesitation! Culture is born from romantic extravagance! If you hesitate, you might miss an opportunity."


This striking butterfly ring, too, is a product of fate and a special encounter.
To hear the story of how she came to own this ring, please ask Ms. Shimaji directly at the salon.

Haven't we all had that moment, at least once or twice, when we're window shopping and something just clicks in our hearts? Such encounters with wonderful things can become the wisdom needed to discern truly great items, and perhaps even be the shortcut to becoming more stylish.

Incidentally, the salon is stocked with items that Ms. Shimaji has encountered thanks to her romantic spending habits over the years. Each and every item is sure to spark your imagination…
You might get so much positive stimulation that you can't help but want to keep coming back to the salon, so please be careful! (lol)
