Our Customer's Experiences
Alejandro Domínguez (República Dominicana)
Receiving our custom kakemono scrolls from Interior Calligraphy was a truly special moment for our dojo. As the Chief Instructor of Shugyo Shin Dojo Aikikai and President of Aikikai Dominican Republic, I wanted authentic Japanese calligraphy that would reflect the spirit and values of our school. From the very beginning, Yoshi and his team provided outstanding service, carefully guiding us through every step of the custom-order process and ensuring every detail was perfect. When we unveiled the scrolls, we were amazed. The craftsmanship, materials, and calligraphy are simply exceptional. The dimensions fit our kamiza perfectly, and the beauty of each brushstroke brings elegance, tradition, and authenticity to our dojo. There is an old Japanese belief that the environment shapes the heart and spirit of those who practice within it. These beautiful works of art remind our students of the values of Aikido every time they step onto the tatami, creating an atmosphere of respect, harmony, and continuous self-improvement. We wholeheartedly recommend Interior Calligraphy to any dojo or anyone seeking authentic, museum-quality Japanese calligraphy. Thank you, Yoshi and your team, for creating timeless works of art that will remain part of our dojo’s history for many years to come.

Most custom orders are completed in about one month. During this time, we work closely with you to create a one-of-a-kind kakemono scroll. From calligraphy to traditional mounting, every piece is handcrafted by skilled Japanese artisans.
Before we begin creating the first draft of your calligraphy, we ask for a deposit of approximately 25% of the total price. The remaining balance is due after your custom kakemono scroll is completed and before it is shipped.
Online meetings are generally not part of our standard process. Most custom orders are discussed and completed through email, Facebook Messenger, or LinkedIn Messages. If an online meeting is required, we may be able to arrange one for an additional fee, as a translator may need to join. We also share our work regularly on YouTube and social media, allowing customers to follow our activities and creative process with confidence.
Some customers are happy with the very first draft, while others prefer one or two rounds of refinements. We listen carefully to your feedback and work together as a team to create a custom kakemono scroll you'll be proud to display.
Yes, absolutely. We have delivered custom kakemono scrolls to customers, homes, and martial arts dojos around the world. We ship internationally with DHL Express and can deliver to any country where artwork can be shipped.
