Yamanaka Lacquerware
Yamanaka lacquerware traces its origins back to the late 16th century in the mountains of Ishikawa, Japan.

The result was a perfect harmony between durability and refinement\tableware that could be used every day yet admired like art. Today, Yamanaka lacquerware remains a beloved symbol of Japanese craftsmanship, bringing warmth and quiet elegance to the modern dining table.Oryoki Bowl (Nesting Set)
