Although it is unused, I have handled it a few times, so I have selected "Like New." In addition to its traditional beauty, the lustrous surface unique to lacquerware enhances the presentation of food. It can be enjoyed in various ways, not only for New Year's osechi cuisine but also for everyday use, such as serving salads or roast beef, or using each tier like a shokado bento box. Wajima-nuri is made using traditional techniques passed down in Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture, and one of its great charms is its durability. Wajima-nuri is made by applying multiple layers of lacquer. Especially in the base coating, unique processes such as "cloth application" and "sogimijitsuke" reinforce parts that are prone to chipping and cracking, creating a very strong foundation. Starting with the drying of the wood, over 100 processes are carried out through a division of labor, with each process handled by a specialized craftsman. High-quality Wajima-nuri is created through the careful work of skilled artisans. Even if Wajima-nuri chips or cracks, it can be repaired and repainted, allowing it to be used semi-permanently. This is a great charm unique to Wajima-nuri, allowing it to be passed down through generations. Lacquer has antibacterial properties, which also helps to maintain the deliciousness of the food packed in the jubako (lacquered food container). In addition, the layering of natural wood and lacquer has high insulation properties, so it can also be expected to keep the temperature of the food at a moderate level.

I would be happy to pass on this square jubako to someone who will cherish it. - Color: Blue - Material: Wood - Design: Traditional jubako design - Contents: 3-tiered red lacquered jubako - Accessories: With lid Thank you for viewing.
