Among the lacquer cultures with a history of over a thousand years, it is characterized by particularly precise and highly durable techniques. Craftsmen repeatedly apply carefully selected lacquer, repeating the processes of drying and polishing, to create a deep luster and a durable texture. Furthermore, by using decorative techniques such as maki-e (sprinkled picture) and chinkin (gold inlay), each piece has value as a work of art.
