Archaic Bamboo Letter Opener #10



Description:

Bamboo Letter Opener#10
I am working on a Collection of Bamboo letter opener. After being cut the bamboo is sealed and hardened with transparent urushi, "Fuki Urushi". It is then fit with a "habaki" made of polished Ebonite. Mounted in a Paper Marche "Koshirae" lacquered with "Kuro Ishime-ji" black stone surface Urushi lacquer. The goal is that the object gives an archaic impression.
