Muromachi
Description:
"Muromachi Nuri" Urushi Lacquer. Here we have a mix of “Kinsouku Mitateai” Urushi Lacquer imitating metal and “Ishime-ji” imitating Stone surfaces. This lacquer has a very archaic expression and therefore I call this combination Muromachi. Muromachi Period “Muromachi Jidai” (1336 - 1573) was an archaic period and was greatly preoccupied with ongoing civil war. The Lacquer resembles the aestetic taste of this period.
The Pipes are completely hand crafted and lacquered in the MP Atelier in Switzerland
