Niwaki's origins reach back to 1996, when founder Jake travelled to Japan and discovered the gardens, and the trees, and vowed to learn more. Back home in England, he trained as a TEFL teacher, before heading back to Japan where he worked at a traditional plant nursey in a rural part of Osaka, learning all about tree training, pruning and rootballing. Returning again to England Jake spent the next 5 years honing his Niwaki skills.
Niwaki is a Japanese lifestyle brand dedicated to gardeners and craftsmen. It applies Japanese techniques and traditions to its products in a way that brings the very best in Japanese design and craftsmanship to life, inspiring gardeners, chefs and craftsmen to do the stuff they love, even better.
