Beautiful red and black octagonal lacquerware 6.5-sun (approx. 19.5 cm) candy container. It features rare cherry bark craftwork. Cherry bark craft (Kaba-zaiku) is a traditional craft of Kakunodate, Senboku City, Akita Prefecture, using the bark of wild cherry trees as material. Daily necessities and decorative items are made using cherry bark, which has a unique luster and texture. The main processes involve thinly peeling the cherry bark, applying it to a wooden mold for shaping, and polishing it to bring out the luster. Modern Kaba-zaiku: While preserving traditional techniques, new products that suit modern lifestyles are also being developed. Kaba-zaiku is valued not only for its beauty but also for its practicality and durability, and is popular as a gift. Thank you for viewing. #Aiai's Kitchen Series #Outside ①
