About the Item

This product is one of the work boards once used by lacquer craftsmen, and is a piece full of history and technology. It was used in the northern Kanto region and further northeastern Tohoku region of Japan. This board, which was used from the Taisho era to the Showa era, was used to make lacquerware. Red and black lacquer is layered many times, and someone in later generations polished the board to create a beautiful marbled pattern. There are polished lacquer work tables like this, but each one has a unique expression. Lacquer can be interpreted as layers = time, and this is a work that was created by layering layers of time one by one. And you can feel the beauty of traditional Japanese crafts. And by displaying it as an interior decoration, it gives the space a unique warmth and style. By picking up this work that is filled with history and culture, you will be able to feel the breath of the ancient craftsmen. This beautiful marble-patterned item, a fusion of the power of craftsmen and nature (lacquer), will have a strong presence wherever you are, and will draw the attention of anyone who sees it. Why not bring some traditional Japanese beauty into your space? Weight: 1.75kg [We offer Japanese antique furniture and tools that are different from the Japanese antique furniture and art that have been appreciated abroad. These tools were used in private homes and farmhouses in the past. They have been passed through a long time and have an attractive taste. The reality is that many of these items are now being discarded along with the demolition of houses. We are on a mission to re-evaluate these fascinating old objects and preserve them for future generations. And we have seen tens of thousands of items so far. We have used that experience to list the most fascinating items here. We can do this because of our long experience. We will rediscover the "beauty" produced in the life and culture of the common people, which is different from the Japanese art and culture that is known and scattered around the world, and present it to the world. ]
