Nine workshops in one hamlet, where the three trades behind a Sendai chest can be watched separately.
Colour lacquer over silver powder, shifting like a jewel beetle's wing; developed for export in the 1930s.
Zelkova grain glowing through lacquer, dressed in hand-forged iron mounts; its size came from storing swords.
Wiped lacquer that keeps the grain visible, grown from the same woodturning trade as kokeshi.
