Lacquerware techniques learned from Urushi (lacquer) which are not a burden on the natural environment

Mr.Tadahiro Eguchi, the 5th proprietor of Eguchi Shikki Kogei, inherited his father's business in 1982 and began making lacquerware. He moved his studio to Isazawa and learned about lacquer through self-study. He has worked in a wide range of business activities, from making unique eco-friendly hand-made lacquer wares and repairing lacquer wares, to coating buildings with lacquer. He organizes private exhibitions not only in Japan but also in countries overseas such as Germany.
