The beauty of world-renowned lacquerware lies in its incredible dark sheen, which takes almost a year to produce. This episode features the dream-like splendors achieved through the skill of lacquerware craftsmen. We look at the techniques for producing the mirror-like sheen, and the techniques for creating pictures and patterns with gold dust and gold filigree, which can measure less than 0.1mm across.
