Real lacquerware only in everyday life and outdoor scenes
In Aizuwakamatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture2010Nodate, a lacquer ware brand born in the year, is the origin of the name, "Nodake", which enjoys tea outdoors. Where did the idea of wanting to take out the lacquer ware with a strong image of art crafts and luxury items on the day and enjoy it outdoors? Sekimi Institute of Technology, which develops brands3I would like to ask Mr. Masakuni Seki.
"My grandfather, the first generation, created the world's first lacquer" commendation shield "using Aizu -ji's technology, and still in Japan.TopAlthough it is used as a shield of class awards, not only the commendation souvenir but also lacquer technology has reached its sales peak in the Showa era, and has been in danger of disappearing since the demand slump in Heisei.3When I succeeded, I wanted to create a lacquer product that would be required for my daily life in order to connect lacquer culture used since the Jomon period as the cornerstone of Japanese culture. I did it. "
Lacquerware is actually a material with various characteristics, and it seems that there are many outdoor characteristics.
"First of all, it is a natural material that has the characteristics required for the outdoor environment, such as being super lightweight, does not fluctuate in cold water, hot water, not strong alkaline or strong acid, and kills germs. If you like it and use it in the forest, you wanted to be surrounded by natural materials than petrochemical materials and metals, so a no -datemag that took advantage of the characteristics of lacquerware was born. "
Lacquer, which has excellent heat resistance and antibacteriality, may be the best scene where the outdoors can maximize their charm.
Make a new theory of lacquerware while focusing on traditional technology and materials
Nodate Mug is a lacquerware with a leather string attached to make it easier to carry with a "sliding lacquer" technique that shows the grain. Because it is a form with a ball edge at the end, it is designed as if it had floated on the table with the visual effect of light hitting from the top.
"Nodate Mug values not only materials but also the handicrafts of craftsmen backed by traditional techniques. On top of that, incorporating modern needs has begun to create a new lacquer ware theory that will lead to the next generation."
Nodate's lacquer ware is a new update of the relationship between people and lacquerware, while protecting the production of Aizu manufacturing, and leaving that culture in the future.
Because it is a vessel born with the blessings of nature, let's take it out
Nodate is often sold at outdoor festival venues, but we will ask you how to use it outdoors.
"As the name implies, if you are a Nodate One, you should definitely enjoy the Matcha outside with the matcha. Curry and pasta can be used, but Gapao Rice is good. It is a lacquerware. I want you to use it aggressively and wash it, and it will lead to how to play without garbage. "
Why don't you hang out in a backpack and use lacquerware casually in nature?
