Once you try it, you won't be able to put it down, as it has a smooth mouthfeel. The wing-shaped cup fits the lower lip well, is easy to drink from and easy to hold, and is a shape that we are very proud of, having carefully crafted it. We also pursued durability by using a rare hollowed-out wooden base and pasting hemp cloth on the bottom to increase its strength. The lacquer is applied seven times, giving it a sturdy and lustrous shine. This is a Kiso lacquerware item that you will want to use every day.

Notes
The same product may have different sizes and weights, resulting in individual differences. We do not accept returns for the above reasons. [To ensure that lacquerware can be used for a long time] -Please use a neutral household detergent. -Do not use bleach. - When washing, wash by hand or with a soft sponge. Do not use stainless steel scrubbers or abrasives. After washing, wipe off all moisture and then dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight. - Avoid storing in hot and humid places as this may cause mold to grow. ・Please avoid soaking the product. - Sudden changes in temperature or humidity may cause the product to deform or become damaged. - Please be careful when handling the product as applying excessive weight to it, hitting it, dropping it or other strong impacts may cause it to break. [About the scent of lacquerware] Because the product is lacquered, it will inevitably have a paint smell when you first start using it. We recommend that you remove it from the box and interior paper and leave it for a while before using it. If it still has a smell, the smell will gradually disappear as you use it. Furthermore, lacquer is a natural paint and is completely harmless. Please use it with confidence.
A shape that was arrived at after careful consideration of "ease of use"
Once you try it, you won't be able to put it down because of its smooth texture.
Its carefully designed shape fits the lower lip, making it easy to hold and drink from.
It has been improved many times to become what it is today.
Durability as a "tool for daily life"
The bottom is covered with linen fabric to increase its strength, and then the entire piece is coated with seven coats of lacquer for a sturdy, lustrous finish.
The wood used is made by hollowing out the wood. Hollowed out wood is rare and has higher strength than wood with joints.
Commitment to Japanese Style
Do you have the image that lacquerware is a luxury item that only a select few can use?
That is not the case. I believe that all Japanese people have an appreciation for the warmth, texture, soothing feeling, and healing power of wood.
Based on the concept of "commitment to Japanese culture," our company offers a selection of lacquerware that can be used casually every day, rather than being treasured and put away.
Because chopsticks and bowls are used every day, you should pay special attention to them.
Eventually the shine will fade and the lacquer may peel off, but because the product has been used as a part of our daily lives, it is filled with memories for our customers.
Use chopsticks until you can no longer hold them, and use bowls until the soup starts leaking out.
We believe this is a sign of consideration for the rare wood and for the artisans who worked so hard to make it.
