The Japanese tried their best to get into the holiday item export business to the USA, but the vast majority of their output seldom compared favorably to the innovativeness and production standards of the typical holiday export item made in Germany. Their use of crepe and cut-outs to “finish” their items screams how willing they were to cede their seat at the quality table. This market segment, which does have its adherents, never appealed to me. This item is already up to $71 with four days left.
