If the bowl you pick up every day is your true favorite, I think your daily meals will be more fulfilling and satisfying.

We will hold a semi-order order reception for Rokurosha, which was popular last year, where you can find your own bowl "only bowl" that is close to your daily life. Choose the desired shape and color combination, and the craftsmen of the wood product workshop Rokurosha will take the time to create the only lacquer bowl in the world according to the order. You can enjoy the warmth of a bowl that has been carefully made just for you, taking time and effort.

Choose the only bowl

A lacquer bowl that uses Mizumezakura for the wood and applies lacquer over it. Lacquer is the sap that comes out when a lacquer tree is scratched, and the more you use it, the more it tastes. Because it is a natural material, each person has their own personality, and no one is exactly the same. Therefore, even if the same process is performed, the time and effort required differs depending on the product, but there is no difference in the high degree of perfection, and it is still carefully made.

The process of making a bowl is the same for all painting methods up to the point of "purchasing materials in the market> shaving to the ideal shape> soaking in plenty of lacquer to fill the conduit of the wood (hardening the wood)". After that, lacquer is applied to the ground wood, and then lacquer is applied from above to increase the strength. There are about 16 steps in total. Even with just one bowl, a dough master who scrapes the dough, a base master who applies the base lacquer over and over, a top coater who applies the finishing lacquer, and a lacquer painter when applying lacquer. It is being done.

We will introduce the features of each coating.

[Wipe lacquer]
By seeing the grain of wood, you can have a warm impression. Since the facial expressions of the eyes differ depending on the tree, it may be easier to feel the special feeling of having only one bowl.
- Wipe lacquer Raw lacquer: Finish by repeating the work of applying the raw material of lacquer to a bowl and wiping it off.
- Wipe lacquer Black lacquer: The raw material of lacquer is chemically changed to black by stirring while applying iron and heat. As with raw lacquer, the process of applying it to the bowl and wiping it off is repeated.

[Eye repellent]
The lacquer applied to the bowl is applied repeatedly without wiping it off, and the thick coating film makes it strong. Perfect for those who want to show the grain of wood but want a bowl that is stronger than wiping lacquer.

[True coating]
Unlike wiping lacquer, it is made by mixing diatomaceous earth or layering cloth, so it is very sturdy. Pigments are used for coloring.

[Tanguchi]
This is the color that ZUTTO specially requested for this only bowl order reception. The color is slightly lighter than that of true paint, and it is closer to vermilion, making it more familiar to the table. This is also colored in the same way as true painting.
