Shipping the Ginkakuji Style Natsuyama Granite Basin to a Repeat US Customer via UPS

This time, we proudly shipped the "Ginkakuji Style Natsuyama Granite Water Basin" to our valued repeat customer in the United States. Our packaging process is not just about wrapping; it is a meticulously engineered "Multi-Layer Protection System" designed to ensure that delicate stone masterpieces arrive at distant gardens completely intact.

Here is an overview of our rigorous packaging procedures, which reflect our deep respect for the stone material and our commitment to enduring the harsh realities of international transport.

1. Primary Protection: Newspaper and Air Cushion Layer

To shield the stone surface from micro-scratches and dust, we first meticulously wrap each part using specialized Japanese Stone Industry Newspaper. This not only serves as a soft, first layer of cushioning but also symbolizes our daily commitment to deepening our knowledge of stone materials. Over this, the piece is completely encased in thick air cushioning, forming an essential layer that absorbs minor impacts during transit.

2. Secondary Defense: Corrugated Cardboard Wrapping

Next, we apply flexible corrugated cardboard wrap around the air-cushioned stone, focusing especially on corners and curved edges which are most vulnerable to chipping. This layer prevents compression damage and ensures that the heavy granite piece remains perfectly immobile within the box, a crucial step for safely shipping heavy stone items.

3. Final Security & Documentation (Certificate of Origin)

Finally, the securely wrapped product is placed into a sturdy, corrugated outer box. We fill all remaining gaps with cushioning materials to handle external pressure, sealing the package for maximum security.

Crucially, we attach the Certificate of Origin to every product. This document serves as proof that your item is an authentic Japanese artisan craft and demonstrates our responsibility toward the cultural background and genuine nature of the product.

Through this unwavering commitment to perfect packaging, we guarantee the safe arrival of your precious stone basin.
