Hand Carved Lacquer
Limited Edition
Contemporary
Dating back to China's Shang Dynasty (1600-1100 BC), the art of lacquerware is a masterclass in patience. Each unique piece is individually crafted using at least 60 layers of organic lacquer, with every coat requiring a dedicated curing time. Intricate patterns are then hand-carved, rendering a multi dimensional surface. A single piece can take over a year to complete, and natural inclusions may be visible, honoring the organic beauty of this ancient technique.
