【Craftsmanship and Attention to Detail】

Beautiful light leaking out

The scenery that looks like sunlight leaking through trees is expressed by Maki-e on the back of the glass, and the lacquered surface is hand-worked and sharpened like Negoro-nuri (Negoro-nuri). This process allows the light from the light source to leak out warm and beautiful light with shadows.

*Negoro-nuri is a type of Japanese lacquerware painting technique in which a black lacquer undercoat is applied followed by a vermilion lacquer coating.

Reproducing digital design with warmth of handwork

KISHU+ items combine digital manufacturing and machine processing while respecting traditional handicrafts. KISHU+ develops products that are not bound by the framework of lacquerware, using "cutting-edge craftsmanship," an expression that cannot be achieved by handwork alone or industrial production alone.
