Yosegi is said to have been created by Ishikawa Jinbe at the end of the Edo period, and has been passed down for nearly 200 years. The way to make it is to cut out the wood according to the pattern and bond them together to make a block of wood called a seed plate. Based on this, the surface is thinly cut and affixed to a wooden product is called “Zuku”, and the seed plate is shaved using a potter's wheel etc. is called “Muku”.
