Maeju Shikki is a long-established Japanese lacquerware maker founded in 1939 in Yamanaka Onsen, Japan. It is located in Kaga City, Ishikawa Prefecture, an area known for lacquerware for over 400 years. Yamanaka is especially famous for its exceptional woodturning techniques, known as rokuro-biki. Lacquerware from this region is beloved for graceful forms, deep red and black tones, and a smooth, comfortable texture.
