Japanese lacquerware, known as urushi, is an ancient craft utilizing sap from the lacquer tree, traditionally applied to wood bases to create durable, highly polished items valued for their aesthetic and protective qualities.

These items are crafted from turned wood bases coated with multiple layers of natural urushi sap, often featuring intricate gold and silver powder designs applied through the maki-e technique.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-turned wood grain beneath the lacquer, natural urushi ageing characteristics such as subtle crazing or fine patination, and meticulous hand-painted metallic detailing.

They can be displayed on surfaces like a sideboard or within a glass cabinet as focal decorative objects, introducing vibrant colour and rich cultural heritage to minimalist or eclectic spaces.

Keep lacquerware away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and heat sources. Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh detergents, abrasives, or soaking in water.
