Yamanaka lacquerware Urushino Utsuwa Asada山中塗 うるしの器あさだ

This facility produces and sells traditional Yamanaka lacquerware in its own workshop, and also offers hands-on experiences like painting everyday items such as chopsticks and bowls. "Urushi Painting Experience" (around 40 to 50 minutes) lets you freely decorate finished lacquerware, with friendly guides on hand to support you—making it easy even for children to enjoy. For those less confident with drawing, the Wipe Lacquer Experience is a great alternative. The beautifully crafted, easy-to-use pieces have received awards such as "2019 Good Design Award", making souvenir shopping here a real pleasure. If you’re visiting Ishikawa, this is a memorable way to engage with Japanese tradition.
