Otsu (meaning strange; quaint; stylish; chic; spicy; witty; tasty; romantic) is dedicated to providing hard-to-find, high-quality, fairly-made vegan items including shoes, belts, wallets and bags. Otsu has a line called little Otsu, where they collaborate with artists and designers to create print products, with an emphasis on unique works that are valued for their artistry, functionality, and use of recycled and alternative materials. Submissions are now open if you are an artist and interested in submitting your work for consideration.

I bought a Jill Bliss calendar from Otsu for 2006 and I adore it! The quality is great, and their customer service was excellent. They even sent extra goodies along like stickers, and a small pad of paper. Everytime I read of an artist having used them for printing – they always have such great things to say. I really love thier products and I like hearing how well they treat artists.
