Founded more than 45 years ago by three friends from Japan, Sanko began in San Francisco’s historic Japantown, sharing the warmth and beauty of Japanese homeware and culture with the local community.

In July 2021, the store entered a new chapter as SF76, carrying forward the same spirit of thoughtful curation and timeless design that has guided it from the very beginning.

Today, SF76 continues the legacy of Sanko, remaining dedicated to selecting home goods that bring a quiet sense of joy to everyday life.
