Hidehira-nuri
A traditional lacquerware that continues to convey the golden culture that blossomed in Hiraizumi. Its origins are said to date back to the late Heian period, when Fujiwara no Hidehira, the third generation of the Oshu Fujiwara clan, invited skilled artisans from Kyoto to create vessels using an abundance of local lacquer and gold. The design, featuring gold leaf and powerful patterns set against the deep luster of lacquer, possesses a beauty that seems to directly reflect the prosperity of Hiraizumi. During the 2016 G7 Ise-Shima Summit, sake cups made with this Hidehira-nuri technique were selected as gifts for the heads of state. A masterpiece that inherits the advanced Heian-period lacquer techniques shared with Chuson-ji Konjikido. Every time you hold it, you can feel the golden dream once seen by the Oshu Fujiwara clan quietly breathing within.
