Don't miss Apricot the star dog! - Apricot (signature dog) was very cute and had a great time! The pearls were also very beautiful, and the owner, Chiaki, was very nice to me!

Quick and easy, fun experience in Osaka - This was a nice interlude for an extra day in Osaka. Located in shinsaibashi area, very close to the Shinsaibashi-suji shopping mall, this is a nice thing to do on a hot day ( or any day really). Small shop with friendly staff, we chose our oysters and were able to open with a plastic knife (so no danger for kids etc). Located our pearls and then were able to choose jewellery to mount it in if we wanted. My son loved doing this and the necklace and ring are really nice. If you want more pearls, you can just ask and open more oysters (cost extra per oyster)

Great fun; unique experience. - Pretty unique experience we did on a lark, very last minute. I’m a metalsmith/jeweler and I thought this would be a great idea to bring home as a souvenir and then fashion as a jewelry piece for myself. If you don’t have those skills you can make something in the shop as an option for a bit extra. The hostess was very polite and friendly and the experience was quite fun for my husband and myself. Bonus: I get to keep his pearl too! Very fun!!
