What we do

This is a small operation with a narrow shelf. Nothing is listed until we have handled it, and nothing stays listed once it stops being something we would buy ourselves.

How we choose

We buy in small quantities and test before listing. Where a material matters we name it plainly, because 'soft' and 'generous' are not information you can act on.

How we describe things

Descriptions are written from the item, not from the supplier's marketing sheet. A listing that only lists strengths is an advertisement.

Where we are

We are a Hong Kong registered company operating this shop online, with stock handled from our own warehouse. Registered details and the support address sit in the footer of every page.

How we work

Buying and testing

Stock is bought in small runs and checked before it is listed: materials noted from the label and from handling, and a note made of anything a buyer would want to know but a supplier would leave out. Where a supplier cannot tell us the composition, the item does not go up until we have checked it ourselves. That is slower, and it is the reason the catalogue stays short. A short catalogue that is accurate is more useful than a long one that is approximately right.

What we do not do

There are no limited-time banners here, no crossed-out prices that were never charged, and no staged photographs of a product we have not received. We do not run countdown timers or invented discounts, and we do not publish reviews we have written ourselves.

Company information

Registered details

Our company name, registered address and contact email appear in the footer on every page of the site, so you never have to hunt for who you are buying from. Requests for details in writing are answered the same business day.

Checking an order is really from us

Every order confirmation comes from our own domain and quotes an order number you can reply to. If a message asks for card details or a transfer to a personal account, it is not from us — forward it and we will confirm.

Sourcing and stock

Where the stock comes from

Stock comes from small makers and short production runs rather than from a single wholesaler's catalogue. When a run finishes it usually does not return, which is why a listing disappears instead of becoming a backorder.

Why the catalogue changes

Listings come and go with the stock rather than with a marketing calendar. New pieces appear when a run arrives and leave when it sells through, and the counts stated on this site are kept in step with the live catalogue rather than left at last season's figure.
