In the Horeki era (1751-1780), the introduction of casting technology for karakane (copper) led to the production of Buddhist altar fittings, incense burners, etc. Large-scale castings such as temple bells and lanterns also began. Since then, through technological advancements and improvements, its value as a high-class art craft has been recognized both domestically and internationally, and it has been designated as a traditional craft by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry.
