Tsugaru lacquerware (called tsugaru nuri in Japanese) is produced around the city of Hirosaki in Aomori prefecture. Lacquerware has been produced in this region since the middle of the Edo period (1603-1868), but it began to be called Tsugaru lacquerware only after being exhibited in 1873 at the World Exposition in Vienna. Today, Tsugaru lacquerware is used as a general term for traditional lacquerware produced in the Tsugaru region.
The notable features of Tsugaru lacquerware are its practicality, durability and highly refined appearance. The unique togidashi kawari nuri technique makes beautiful multi-layered patterns of colored lacquer stand out. Lacquer is coated dozens of times onto a base made using Tsugaru cypress. This process is carried out repeatedly for two months in order to produce strong, thick and beautiful lacquerware.
Circa 1960, good vintage condition.
