    Style

    I make wood products, mainly lacquerware, using the turning lathe. I do the whole process by myself from selecting the material, cutting the wood, and finishing with wiped lacquer.
    I make products not only for daily use but also fine items, maximizing the beauty of the wood grain. I give my full attention to the wood and finish each piece with great care.
