About Tanuki & Co 🍙

At Tanuki & Co we design and make original Japan themed goods that brighten up your day! Many of our creations are Japanese food inspired as eating yummy food brings us joy and that's what's on our mind. 

We currently make T-shirts, hats, earrings, daruma (lucky ornament), keychains, stickers... and there's more to come! 

Our items are only available via our online shop and many are handmade in small batches so make sure to subscribe to Tanuki Mail to stay in the loop for new product updates.

We've also started doing taiyaki popups every now and then in Wellington city to share our love for Japanese food! If you're in town, come say hi! 

About the Creator 🍥

Hi I'm Nao. Tanuki & Co for me is about finding and pursuing what I love. It’s about creating and having fun from the bottom of my heart and seeing where this journey can take me.

My work often reflects on what I love and find interesting about my Japanese roots with a sprinkle of kiwi flare. 

I hope that my journey and creations can remind you to play more, dream more and turn your everyday into more Fundays!

Thank you for stopping by
