KANAZAWA ICHIGO ICHIE
An amazing journey to explore the significance oflong established Japanese Arts and Crafts

An opportunity to explore for yourself.
A unique experience is available here.

Traditional arts and crafts developed in Kanazawa
under the patronage of the Maeda lords of the Kaga
domain, who invited skilled craftsmen from Kyoto andTokyo to promote arts and crafts. The traditional
materials and techniques of the Kaga region were used
to establish distinctive designs featuring the stately andrefined samurai culture.
Since Kanazawa has not been damaged by any large
natural disasters or wars for more than 420 years since
the Edo period, and the successive lords of the domain
had a policy of promoting culture, the tea ceremony, Nohchanting, and traditional crafts are still today an integral
part of the lives of local residents.

Ohi Ware and Its History

Tea Bowl by Ohi Toyasai (Ohi Chozaemon X)
大樋赤釉茶盌 大樋陶冶斎（十代長左衛門）作

The origins of Ohi Ware begin around 350 years ago, when thefifth-generation daimyo of the Kaga Domain, Maeda Tsunanori,summoned Tea Master Senso (Senso Soshitsu), ancestor of
the Urasenke School, to Kanazawa from Kyoto accompanied
by Ohi Chozaemon, a skilled Raku ware apprentice of the 4th
Raku-Ichinyu. Since then, 11 generations of artisans havecreated tea ware with a unique style that differs from Raku
ware for the Japanese way of tea, including tea bowls, watercontainers, vessels for confectionaries, and other tea utensils
used for tea ceremonies.
A distinctive feature of Ohi ware is its inimitable shiny ambercolor and its feel. Based on the Zen concept of wabi-sabi,
nearly all works are crafted by hand without the use of apotter's wheel, so they fit comfortably with the user’s hands
and lips.

大樋焼とその歴史
大樋焼は、およそ350年前に加賀藩主五代・前田綱紀侯が京都より
仙叟宗室（裏千家四代）を茶道普及の為に金沢へ招きました。その際、長次郎を始祖とする楽家四代一入の高弟初代長左衞門を京都より同道したことに始まります。それ以来、11代にわたって、茶の湯に用いる
茶碗、水指、菓子器など、楽焼とは違った独自の様式の茶道具をつくってきました。
大樋焼の特徴は、独特に輝く飴色とその感触です。ほとんどすべての作品はわびさびの理念に沿って、ろくろを使わず手捻りでつくられており、手と唇になじむ感覚があります。

加賀友禅

History and characteristics of Kaga Yuzen“Yamaai”, Maida Kenji
やまあい 毎田健治作

Kimono is a traditional Japanese ethnic costume. In Kanazawa, a city richwith cultural activities such as tea ceremony, Noh plays, and traditional
dance, people wear kimonos quite often. There are different types ofkimonos for different places and occasions, and Kaga Yuzen kimonos inparticular are worn when attending a wedding, party, or other high-classevents. Kaga Yuzen has an extensive history, and it is thought that its
origins date back about 550 years to a dyeing technique called “umezome.” Main motifs of Kaga Yuzen are the beauties of nature in eachseason and designs that are skillfully and vibrantly drawn using a variety oftechniques.
Kaga Yuzen has about 15 steps from design to finishing. At Kaga Yuzen
Maida studio, they perform all steps of the process in their own studio toexpress designs that reflect the times with high-quality dyeing.

加賀友禅の歴史と特徴
日本の民族衣装のひとつである着物。茶の湯や能、踊りといった稽古事が盛んな金沢では、普段でも着物を来ている方を見かけます。着物にはさまざまな種類がありますが、加賀友禅は結婚式やパーティ等の格式の高い場所で着用します。その歴史は古く約550年前にあった「梅染」が起源と言われます。写実的な絵画が特徴で、
四季の花鳥風月が主なモチーフです。色彩も豊かで、自然美を巧みに鮮やかに描いています。工程は細かく分かれており、制作には職人の繊細で巧みな手作業が要求されます。
図案から仕上げまで小さな作業を含めると約15工程がありますが、毎田染画工芸
では、その工程を一貫して工房内で制作しています。均一の品質を高めることと、時代に合わせた意匠を最終の仕上げまで責任を持って厳格に見届けるためです。

History and Characteristics of Kanazawa
Lacquerware and Kaga Maki-e

Maki-e lacquered box "Shirohana Shoyo" by Shoitsu Nishimura「白花逍遥」蒔絵箱 西村松逸作

Kanazawa lacquer art is distinctive for its delicate yet bold
and magnificent creation. The lacquer coating and maki-e
decoration are both incredibly elaborate, and the luxurious
use of gold and other materials is unlike any other lacquer art.
Beginning with furnishings of the Maeda clan, wares such astea ceremony utensils also became well known for their
exceptionally high artistic value with an emphasis on one-ofa-kind production.
Generations of Maeda clan lords dedicated themselves to thecreation of saddles and armor as well as furnishings such as
stationary stands and writing boxes. The finest artisans of thetime were invited to Kanazawa from Kyoto and Edo (modernday Tokyo) to nurture and develop maki-e techniques thatunite opulence with elegance.

金沢漆器や加賀蒔絵の歴史と特徴
金沢の漆芸の特徴は繊細でありながら豪放華麗な制作にあります。
塗り・蒔絵共に精緻を極めつつ、金や材料をこれほど贅沢に使う漆芸は類を見ません。前田家調度品に発し茶道具など一品制作を中心とし、美術価値が非常に高いことでも知られてきました。
前田家暦代藩主は、鞍など武具や文台硯箱など調度にも心を注ぎ、
京都江戸から当代随一の名工を招き、豪華絢爛で雅味を併せ持つ蒔絵技術を金沢に開花発展させました。

Lacquer Work 漆工
Characteristics of Sugita's Lacquer Work
Carrying forward the techniques of Wajima lacquerware, Sugita’s
work is defined by its clean forms and careful processes that areeasily integrated into contemporary lifestyles. The wooden basesthat compose the forms are all Sugita originals. On top of this,cloth is affixed with lacquer, known as nunokise, and then heated,powdered diatomaceous earth from the Noto Peninsula is mixed
into the lacquer base. This amalgamation forms a durable
undercoat. The process of coating, drying and sanding the lacquer
is repeated 12 to 13 times to further reinforce and strengthen thematerial.
Sugita’s works have a signature matte, dull finish with marks
leftover from polishing that introduces a range of possibilities forthe concept and application of the wares.

杉田氏の漆工の特徴
輪島塗の技法を受け継ぎ、現代の生活にも取り入れやすい端正な造形と丁寧な工程が特徴です。器の形となる木地は杉田氏のオリジナル。そこへ布を漆で貼り付ける布着せ（ぬのきせ）を行い、下地漆には能登半島で採れる珪藻土を焼成粉末化したものを混ぜます。珪藻土が漆と結びつくことで丈夫な塗膜を作ります。その後、漆の塗りと乾燥、研ぎの工程を12～13回繰り返すことで強度を高めます。
杉田氏の作品は、マットな鈍い艶を放ち、磨き跡が残る質感が特徴で、漆器のイメージや用途の可能性を広げてくれます。

加賀繍History and characteristics of Kaga embroidery“Steps” by Miyakoshi Hitomi
刺繍摺箔箱「行程」 宮越仁美作

Kaga embroidery, or Kaga-nui, is a style of embroidery producedin the Kaga region of Ishikawa Prefecture, including Kanazawa.
Kaga embroidery is known for designs intricately sewn in relief
and for its dazzling yet dignified beauty. It makes use ofadvanced techniques, such as nikuire-nui, in which multiple
layers of thread are used to create three-dimensional relief aswell as bokashi-nui, in which different colors of silk threads areused to create a gradation. The designs are embroidered after
they are drawn on the silk fabric, which causes them to pop out
and have a distinctive impression.
In addition to high-class kimono, in recent years, Kagaembroidery has been featured in framed art, tapestries andother decorative pieces that further highlight its artistic beauty.

加賀繍の歴史と特徴
加賀繍（かがぬい）は、金沢市を含む石川県加賀地方で生産されている刺繍です。加賀繍の特徴は、繊細な技法で繍い上げた立体的な図柄と、華やかながらも奥ゆかしい美しさです。糸を何重にも重ねて立体的にする「肉入れ繍」や、絹糸の色を変えてグラデーションをつける「ぼかし繍」など高度な技法も使われます。絹織物地に下絵描きをしてから刺繍をする加賀繍は、浮かび上がる図柄が独特の雰囲気を持っています。
近年では高級呉服刺繍のみならず、加賀繍を使った額絵やタペストリーなどの装飾品も作られ、その芸術的な美しさがさらに注目を集めています。

The history can be traced back to 1780 (the ninth year of theAn’ei era of the Edo period) when the first shopkeeper began
to do business in lacquer for artisans who created ornaments
for Buddhist altars.
At present, the eighth-generation shopkeeper is trying to keep
the tradition alive by getting more people worldwide toappreciate lacquerware and other aspects of Japanese culture,such as tea ceremonies and Noh plays.

以来２００有余年、初代から8代に至るまで、漆、漆器の製造販売はもとより『漆文化』の広がりを目指し続けています。
創業者よりの商訓「店はお客様の為にある」を奉じ、伝統的なうるし産業を、うるし文化を、新しい世代に向けて発信するとともに、生活文化の拡がりを目指しています。
