Cherry Bark Work
Cherry bark work, known as Kabazaiku, is a traditional craft from Kakunodate in Akita Prefecture, northern Japan. It dates back to the late 18th century, when local samurai developed this unique technique using the bark of mountain cherry trees. The bark’s smooth sheen and deep natural color give each piece a warm, elegant finish that grows richer over time. Valued for its strength and ability to regulate humidity, it is ideal for tea canisters, trays, and other daily items. Passed down for more than 250 years, Kabazaiku continues to reflect the refined craftsmanship and quiet beauty of Japan’s northern tradition.Trays & Tablemats
Artisan trays and tablemats come in round, rectangular, and half moon shapes. Japanese trays are often made of natural wood, lacquered wood, bamboo, or other organic materials. Trays are a regular feature of the traditional ichiju sansai meal or "one soup, three dishes" to hold and organize the meal's small dishes and bowls. They're also used to serve tea, sake, or snacks.Shipping & Return
