[About our lathe-turned products]

Our lathe-turned products are unique items, handcrafted with care by a single wood turner who is dedicated to working with wood through every step of the process, from selecting the wood to cutting, drying, final turning, and polishing. We are committed to a finishing technique that involves polishing the raw wood to bring out its luster, without applying any paint or varnish. This allows you to fully appreciate the beauty of the wood grain, as well as its feel and warmth. Please note that due to this raw wood finish, the product may slightly expand or contract depending on the season, climate, and environment in which it is used, which could affect the fit of the lid. Also, please be aware that the color tone may vary depending on the shooting conditions and your device's screen.

[About the Craftsman]

Wood Turner Yoshizou Nishiwaki
(Member of the Japan Wood Turner Association, Nagano Prefecture Woodcraft Instructor)

Our products originated from my predecessor's search for raw timber. He searched for wood with landowners in Nagano Prefecture and neighboring prefectures, and personally felled the trees. There were many years when enough premium wood to fill several trucks was prepared, but over time, large, old trees became scarce. Even buying from the market has become quite expensive, so we carefully produce products from the raw timber left by my predecessor. I am grateful for such precious wood, and I feel a mission to bring out its beauty to the fullest. Woodcraft may seem simple and understated at first glance, but I believe it is a job that conveys the evidence of how many decades or hundreds of years a tree has lived. By carefully curing the raw timber for decades, the wood is allowed to acclimate to the seasons, and I determine the timing for production with my own hands. Perhaps only those who have handled wood for many years can hear its voice.
