Life ceremony
Sayaka Murata, the author of the cult novel The Convenience Store Man, is currently writing 13 hard-hitting stories about modern man now and a few decades into the future. Here are sexless love relationships, grotesque life ceremonies with barbaric feasts and insemination rituals, fluttering five-slit personalities, sweet schoolgirls with grotesque pets, and young women on the verge of madness. In a deceptively childish style, Murata describes how man, in his urge to live an orderly, clean and spotless life, is winding himself up. Our idea of what a man is, shifts in these stories towards the barbaric, primitive, monstrous. Sour storytelling from one of Japan's greatest contemporary writers.

About Seramikku
A PIECE OF JAPAN BROUGHT TO DENMARK
At Seramikku, you will find handpicked Japanese functional art in unique and limited quantities.
The brand was born out of our interest in bringing Japanese and Scandinavian styles together and bringing a piece of Japan into Danish homes. We want to make the Japandi style accessible and inspiring for you by offering unique Japanese items that fit into the Scandinavian interior and food culture.
We noticed that others also found the combination of Danish and Japanese completely unique, and that is where the idea to start Seramikku came from.

Hand-picked quality in limited quantities
It all started with the sale of Japanese ceramics, but since then the webshop has been expanded to include, among other things, pinboards, artworks, and Japanese kitchen knives.
We love the idea of you getting something that everyone else doesn't also have. That is why we order a very limited number of each item home, so we ensure that what you get is unique and something that only very few have at home.
In the selection of our products, we take great pride in finding high-quality products. Therefore, we import a large part of our assortment directly from Japanese suppliers, so you are assured both the best price and the best product.
