    While shopping my at Daiso, my little girl "needed" to get this lamp. We're pretty curious about what it says

    Cool looking 'lamp'

    Please forgive me for what I am about to write.

    These days even though it was bought in a 'Japanese' store, it probably says 'Made In China'

    I do hope you find out what the markings actually say.

    Yes, of course it's made in China. That was actually written on the battery compartment in English. Daiso is pretty much the Japanese equivalent of a dollar store. Unfortunately that's just the way it goes nowadays. My kids watch a lot of anime so my 5 year old loves any of the things she sees on her shows. I have very fond memories of the 14 month I spent in Japan. We have a couple books of Japanese folk stories for kids that we both enjoy reading too. We're actually a little obsessed with Japanese culture.

    Probably too hard to read, but no better pics till I have the razor in hand. Any help would be great. Hopefully it will give some hint of the actual age too.

    That's a really hard one I think...

    Maybe, just maybe, some of those kanji are:

    持級証 = Ji-kyū-shō = "Certificate of grade"

    登録商標 = Tōroku shōhyō = Registered trademark

    ... しろ = shiro = white

    捺代退 = ?

    Not sure at all! Hope to find more information in the future,
    I'm also very curious about it!

    Jethro,

    If you need me to try closer up pic of each one I can try.
    There was also some written on the box, unfortunately it is mostly gone. I am going to shave with this one tonight.
