Lacquerware is a traditional Japanese technique that uses natural lacquer, made from tree sap, applied in layers to materials such as wood, bamboo, and cloth. It is characterized by its unique beautiful luster and excellent durability, water resistance, corrosion resistance, and antibacterial properties. The process involves repeated undercoating, middle coating, and top coating to create a smooth and durable film. This product is a rounded confectionery container with a substantial thickness at the bottom.
