Originally, Goshuincho (stamp books) were used to collect official stamps (Goshuin) as proof of offering prayers or copying Buddhist scriptures at temples. Over time, the practice has become simpler. Nowadays, visitors typically receive these stamps after making a pilgrimage or offering a prayer at a temple or Shinto shrine. The Goshuin is often viewed as a representation of the deity or main figure of the temple. It serves as a tangible connection, allowing visitors to honor the bond between themselves and the places they visit.

In addition to collecting Goshuin, this Japanese stationery item is also ideal for gathering stamps from train stations and tourist destinations. Many people use their Goshuincho to collect unique stamps from all over Japan. Each stamp becomes a cherished memory of their travels.

Thanks to its accordion-fold design, you can utilize both sides of the pages. This maximizes the space available for your stamps. Moreover, the stamp book comes with a label sticker. This allows you to freely title your collection (e.g., "Temple Visits in Japan," etc.).

Whether you're an experienced traveler or just starting your collection, this journal offers the perfect way to preserve your memories in style. Capture the essence of your journey with this beautiful and functional Goshuincho. Let each stamp become a lasting reminder of your adventures.

The pages are also suitable for colored pencils and paints, making it perfect not just for collecting stamps but also for sketching or painting as you travel. Whether you want to capture the scenery of each place you visit or keep a visual journal of your journey, this Goshuincho can also serve as a creative canvas to document your adventures in your own unique way.

Tradition and Techniques of Shogado

Since its establishment in Kyoto in 1964, Shogado has evolved from selling traditional Japanese bound books to creating stationery and miscellaneous goods crafted from washi paper. This transition reflects their expertise in utilizing authentic washi sourced from renowned production areas like Fukui Prefecture. Particularly noteworthy are the products hand-dyed by skilled artisans in Kyoto, known as Yuzen paper, distinguished by their superior texture and coloration, setting them apart from mass-produced goods.
