I make the most of the natural luster of lacquer and finish it using the nuritate technique, a technique to apply a finishing coat of lacquer and allow it to harden without polishing. I then add decorations using gold and silver wires.

Techniques
Lacquering
Lacquering (kyūshitsu) is the art of applying lacquer to a substrate using spatulas or brushes. The technique includes a range of processes, from reinforcing the substrate with cloth to building up the foundation and applying the middle- and top-coats. The final coat can be left as is (nuritate), polished with charcoal to a high-gloss finish (roiro shiage), or given one of several hundred alternative (kawarinuri) finishes. Lacquer application is known for both its technical difficulty and richly expressive qualities.
