About the Origin: Yakumo Lacquerware
Yakumo lacquerware is produced in Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture. The process involves decorating the surface with colored lacquer, abalone shell, gold and silver powder, or dried lacquer patterns, which are then coated with transparent lacquer. As time passes, the lacquer becomes more transparent, allowing the intricate, vivid patterns to emerge and giving these pieces their distinctive beauty.
