What is Echizen lacquerware?
Lacquerware crafts have been made in Sabae City, Fukui Prefecture and the surrounding area for over 1,500 years. In Sabae, there have been many lacquer craftsmen for a long time, and because of the availability of high-quality lumber, the technique of making lacquerware has been cultivated. While incorporating decorative techniques from various regions, we continue to develop and create durable vessels by incorporating not only bowls but also synthetic resins and chemical paints to suit the times.
