The Biennale brings together creatives from all over the world who have passed a rigorous selection process.
This 6th edition of the Biennale featured the works of 350 creators, craftsmen, and other exhibitors.
Zohiko, celebrating its 360th anniversary, has produced a number of lacquerware pieces with the aim of restoring and passing on the lacquer craft techniques that have gradually been lost over time.
At the same time, to expand the possibilities of traditional crafts into the future, we challenged ourselves to create pieces that fuse new materials and shapes with lacquer.
We would like to expand the possibilities of lacquerware by showing people not only in Japan but also around the world the techniques that Zohiko has cultivated for 360 years against the backdrop of Kyoto’s traditional culture.
With this in mind, we were pleased to have many people view and admire our works at this exhibition.
We are pleased to announce that we will hold a special exhibition at Kyoto Teramachi Main Shop, where you can view the exhibited works.
Zohiko Kyoto Teramachi Main Shop will hold a special spring themed exhibition from tomorrow, March 29th.
We will exhibit antique items that are usually closed to the public and gorgeous maki-e lacquerware, so please gorgeous maki-e works up close and personal!
The exhibition will be limited to one week only,
