tiepin

Simple design with a clean diagonal cut. This item can be easily matched with a patterned tie. It can be used for both casual and formal occasions. The traditional lacquer technique [tsuishitsu] is used to produce this item. The Tsui-urushi board is cut and polished after 100 to 200 coats of colored urushi lacquer are applied. Since each piece is made by hand, there are individual differences in color, size, and shape. The lighter and smoother the surface is, the more it is used, the more it becomes shiny and comfortable to the touch. Lacquer is a durable material, and if handled with care, it can be used for generations to come. Please enjoy the soft texture and color of lacquer for many years to come.
