"Trees" are alive

These vessels continue to live and change shape

The beauty of nature itself

I don't use any synthetic chemicals, instead I use readily available materials to colour and finish the pieces.

The design features smooth curves that resemble the body lines, and each piece of wood is individually hand-painted without a preliminary drawing.

I carve out the shape I receive from the wood by using my senses.

I feel joy in seeing the finished pieces come to life in our daily lives.

The oldest lacquerware discovered dates back to the Warring States period (403-221 B.C.). the craft has been transferred to Japan, Korea, and other parts of Southeast Asia. The value of a piece of lacquerware only begins with the materials used to make it. A high quality piece of lacquerware requires the skills of several different elements: lacquer, layers, core materials, decoration, colours, design and process.
