Primarily using species like Japanese cherry, horse chestnut, zelkova, and Japanese zelkova, these bases are cut lengthwise to minimize warping, ensuring durability and resistance to cracking.
Appi lacquerware employs precious lacquer sourced from Iwate Prefecture, accounting for only 2% of domestic circulation. This provides the reassurance unique to domestic lacquer and is characterized by a pure, soft luster.
It is a simple lacquerware suitable for any occasion.
