Asian lacquer is a sap tapped from Japanese lacquer trees grown only in East Asia. When dried, the sap can be used as a highly durable paint with a glossy texture. Japanese people have used lacquer for thousands of years to paint wood, bamboo, paper, clothes and other materials for the production of tableware, architecture and Buddhist statues.

Lacquerware is a traditional craft representative of Japan. The deep colour, graceful and humble expressions, and smooth texture of these products give off a beauty like no other. In addition, lacquerware was part of the essential tableware for the life of Japanese people for many years, as its functionality is different from that of ceramics. However, when cheap and casual plastic plates and other petroleum products gained popularity, lacquerware gradually disappeared from daily life. At the same time, when Japanese lifestyles also underwent rapid changes, traditional lacquerware was left far behind. We produced Suiren to match the modern dining table filled with a variety of Western and Japanese dishes, embracing neutral elements coordinated in any style. We also wanted to create lacquerware for daily use without it being formal. We hope that lacquerware makes a comeback in the lives of Japanese people, and that people around the world also incorporate these attractive products into their lives.
