Unique Gift Ideas for Mother's Day: Give the Gift of Kutsurogi with Takaokaya

Mother’s Day is approaching—have you decided how you’ll show your appreciation this year? If you're looking for a gift that’s thoughtful, beautiful, and a little different from the usual bouquet, we invite you to give the gift of Kutsurogi.

What Is Kutsurogi?
Kutsurogi (寛ぎ) simply means “relaxation” in Japanese. At Takaokaya, Kutsurogi is more than a word—it’s a philosophy, a way of life, and an art we’ve been perfecting for over 100 years. We believe in the power of true rest and the joy it brings to everyday life.

Each of our products reflects the sincerity and skill of our Kyoto craftsmen. We hope to bring comfort and a smile to everyone who experiences our Kangu.

This year, express what words alone cannot. Send Kutsurogi—because we love her smile.

This Mother’s Day, don’t just say thank you—wrap her in warmth, comfort, and the timeless joy of relaxation. With Takaokaya’s handmade Kangu and custom embroidery, you’re not just giving a gift—you’re creating a moment.
