Nikaido is a specialty shop that blends its own teas alongside Japanese teapots, fountain pens and fine stationery — a small, considered intersection of two slow crafts in the heart of historic Steveston.
A cup of tea and a fountain pen ask the same thing of you: a little patience, and your full attention. Nikaido was built around that quiet overlap — the leaf and the nib, the kettle and the inkwell.
Loose-leaf greens, blacks and seasonal house blends — measured, balanced and named on our own counter.
Fountain pens and inks for people who still write by hand — chosen to be used, not just admired.
Notebooks, cards and paper goods with a Japanese-craft sensibility — the kind worth keeping.
Blended and named in the shop. The list below is an illustrative concept layout — the real range and prices would be set with the owner.
