My friend came to the Urushi Lacquer Ware institute for a visit


My friend came to the Urushi Lacquer Ware institute for a visit the other day. A teacher commented on basics of each technique to him. He seemed to be interested in the Urushi Lacquer Ware institute very much.
Please come for a visit if a reader of this blog is interested in lacquer and the Urushi Lacquer Ware institute. You can observe there from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. of the Monday through Friday. The person who wants to know the details please confirm the site of the Urushi Lacquer Ware institute.
It is difficult for foreigners, but I recommend coming to the Urushi Lacquer Ware institute in Kagawa prefecture when you came to Japan.

Urushi Lacquer Ware Institute’s web site


It is difficult to explain lacquer works, especially Kagawa’s lacquer works (shitsugei).
I learn Kagawa’s lacquer works at Urushi Lacquer Ware Institute in Kagawa.
So, at the beginning, I recommend you to visit Urushi Lacquer Ware Institute’s web site English page. Unfortunately, English pages are only two pages. But I think that you can get some information.

I started learning about lacquer works in Japan

Hello, everyone.
I'm Japanese man, and I started learning about lacquer works in Japan at April.
My English skill is very poor, but I'd like to know you about lacquer works in Japan, especially Kagawa prefecture. So, I decided to create this blog. If you are interested in Japan and lacquer works, I would like you to check this blog sometimes. Thank you very much.
