Founded in 1907 (Meiji 40), Sakai Woodworks has a rich history spanning over a century in the heart of Japan’s woodcraft town, Okawa. Our founder, Kumakichi Sakai, began this journey alone, creating fine furniture with an artisan’s spirit. Gradually, his dedication attracted apprentices, and Sakai Woodworks grew with the unwavering support of Okawa’s people.
A Legacy of Tradition and Innovation
For over 100 years, Sakai Woodworks has adapted to the changing times, designing and crafting furniture that embodies both traditional values and contemporary needs. Inspired by the pioneering spirit of our predecessors, we carry forward the legacy of quality and craftsmanship, committed to enriching lives through thoughtfully crafted furniture.
Crafting Quality for Living Spaces Everywhere
Our dedication to creating warm, joyful living spaces goes beyond Japan’s borders. With each piece we produce, we aim to bring the heart of Japanese craftsmanship to homes around the world. From small custom orders to large-scale productions, Sakai Woodworks combines time-honored techniques with a commitment to excellence, crafting pieces that bring style, function, and comfort to any space.
Join us in celebrating over a century of quality craftsmanship and the art of furniture making, as Sakai Woodworks continues to grow from Okawa to the world, transforming spaces one piece of furniture at a time.
