Tsuishu lacquer is a traditional technique in which layers of lacquer of many different colors are applied dozens of times and then polished to create a pattern.

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, or bowls until they start leaking.
We believe this shows consideration for the rare wood and the artisans who worked so hard to make it.

Kiso lacquer

Tsuishu is a typical technique for Kiso lacquerware. It is a technique in which layers of lacquer of various colors are applied to the wood using a rolled up cloth or similar material, and then polished down to create a pattern.
It is a very time-consuming process, but the end result is a unique piece of work, none of which are the same.
