Exhibition of Miniature Objects

Get an up-close look at retro miniatures from the pre-war period. Roughly 1,500 miniature objects made by craftsmen from the Meiji era will be on show. The exhibition will be centered around the Minoru Nakata Collection, which consists of about 800 custom-made miniatures. You will also be able to see the Kurata Collection, which is comprised of 600 pieces, and features toys, dolls and everyday tools from the Edo period. As the exhibition is displayed at the Tobacco and Salt Museum, it's only fitting that it also features a ‘Miniature Smoking Collection’, which is a collection of roughly 20 items related to smoking from the Edo period.
