I don't see why it would be fake. Do you mean where it is made? Or who it is made by? If you are unsure about those things you could try contacting the seller for some kind of verification, if that isn't possible, I'd try some other website.

yes if its made by the artist and if its handmade and made in japan? what could be a good proof? I'm new to this and i don't speak good japanese. but you think it looks legit?

Sometimes the artist or manufacturer adds a mark to the bottom of their pieces, you could ask if the items have been marked.

After looking more into the website though, and their returns policy I am lead to believe that the website is relatively trustworthy, offering support if there is anything wrong with their items.

Artistic Nippon Return Policy
All our goods are guaranteed as genuine. If you are not satisfied with the goods which you receive, return the goods to us unused, at your own expense within 8 days. Only the value of the goods will be refunded. (Proper packing and shipping & insurance are desirable.)
We check our products thoroughly for any defects before shipping. Should any manufacturing defects escape our notice, please return the goods. Once inspection has been completed and the defect confirmed, the full value and the return postage fee will be refunded.
In the case of any loss or damage to the products during transportation, we can arrange the replacement upon the completion of an insurance claim.

Also according to their profile page here, they are located in Japan and have even received awards for their shop.

After looking into it all, I'd say they were trustworthy and the items shown are legitimate. If you are still concerned you could see if any other people online have bought from that store before and see what they say about them
