By using this natural wood, the original techniques of Wajima-nuri are brought to life. ● To increase the strength of the material, "nunokise" (cloth application) is applied, and the "undercoat," "middle coat," and "top coat" of lacquer are applied and polished three times, repeating the process to create a glossy finish. The final process involves "decoration" using the luxurious "Maki-e" technique. ● As time passes, the lacquer film hardness increases, and the more you use it, the more durable it becomes, allowing you to experience the true quality of lacquer products. Please enjoy using it for a long time. Thank you for viewing.
