Buttons - antique and collectable at Co- [code]




The great thing about Tokyo is that there are lots of independent shops that specialise in very specific things and Co-[code] is a great example of this. They sell antique and collectable buttons (in the theme of 'imagine and 'creativity' so their website says...), as well as other vintage items, sourcing them from all over the world. I love their vintage suitcases (above)

Co- also hold lots of events and exhibitions. Their latest project, ACT Button, is to raise money for the Great Kanto earthquake which asks people to donate buttons which they will then resell to collect money for the victims of 11/03. Please send any buttons you can to the Tokyo shop address: Mori Building, 1F, 1-8-11, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 101-0031

Co- have a shop in Chiyoda-ku - 1F, 1-8-11 Higashikamida Forest Wave (3 minutes walk from Bakurocho station). For directions check out my Google maps

If you're not in Tokyo you can buy from their online shop (its in Japanese but if you turn on translate in your internet browser you should be able to get the gist!)
