Portland Japanese Garden, 611 S.w. Kingston Ave., offers a glimpse of nature and scenery of Japan.

Now you, too, can own a piece of Japan — kind of. Portland Japanese Garden’s annual summer marketplace, “Behind the Shoji,” opens Saturday, June 21 and stays open through Sept. 1. It’s offering a lot of items for purchase, a selection much larger than the inventory provided at the gift shop, including for the home.

It’s an annual show and sale of Japanese and Japanese-inspired wares, and visitors can peruse and purchase from a variety of curated items often unavailable short of a visit to Japan itself. What makes this elevated and distinctive shopping experience stand out is the level of care and the miles traveled that go into determining which items will be available, publicity says.

It’ll showcase items that will bring the ingenuity and beauty of Japanese design to your home. There’ll be furniture, lighting, and décor and items such as handsome tansu. From Portland-based antique retailer Shogun’s Gallery, these tansu are handcrafted wooden chests made in Japan during the nation’s Meiji period (1868-1912) and are a charming way to store your most valued items.

Hours are 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Wednesdays-Mondays; “Behind the Shoji” is open during regular hours and included with paid admission.
