Three houses, one standard
We buy the way collectors do — for the object, not the category.
Fine Art
Original works, editions and objects — sourced from ateliers and estates, documented and condition-checked.
Atelier
Garments made to last: natural fibres, honest construction, quiet cuts that outlive the season.
Industrial Supply
Tools, hardware and materials chosen for the workshop — specified, stocked and shipped fast.
The storehouse
Kura (蔵) is the Japanese storehouse where a family keeps what matters — sealed against fire and time. We built a modern one: three disciplines, one inventory, one standard of care. Every object is catalogued, condition-checked and shipped to last.

Kept in good company
The provenance file arrived before the painting did. That never happens.
Their supply desk found a discontinued fitting in two days. My workshop runs on Kura.
The only place I've bought a lithograph and a linen coat in the same order.
Buying from Kura
Provenance, shipping and trade.
Do artworks come with documentation?
Yes. Every artwork ships with a provenance and condition file. Editions include their number and, where available, the atelier's certificate.
Can I open a trade account?
Studios, workshops and businesses can apply for a trade account with net terms and volume pricing. Use the contact form.
How do you ship fragile and oversized pieces?
Art and furniture ship crated and insured. Supply orders go by tracked courier, usually within 24–48h of payment.
Do you buy or take consignment?
We source from ateliers, makers and estates, and take selected consignments. Tell us what you have.

Kura isn't a real shop — it's a live showcase of the storefront built into Solutionar. Same store also runs the warehouse, planning, sales and finance behind it.
