Ouchi, a warlord who lived 600 years ago, established the high level culture, known as Ouchi Culture. Ouchi lacquer ware is a typical example. Nakamura Mingei-sha produces lacquer ware and lacquered dolls, from their inner wooden base to finished painting. A wide variety of woods and the high quality of their design have been admired not only in Japan, but also abroad. Please come to Yamaguchi to see this authentic traditional craft.
