Black Running Water Two Tiers Jubako Bento Box with Handle

This two-tiered Jubako Bento box is convenient for carrying around. The chic black color with a gold-painted pattern expresses graceful elegance.

The pattern depicting cherry blossoms in spring and autumn leaves in fall is called the "Shunju (Spring and Autumn)" pattern. It is also called "Unkin" (Cloud and Brocade) pattern, as cherry blossoms are represented as clouds and autumn leaves are represented as brocade. This design can be used regardless of the season, overlaying the wonderful sentiment that spring and autumn come at the same time, which is impossible to achieve in reality.

It is finished in chic black "Tame-uchi-Kuro-nuri (black lacquering)". "Tame-nuri" is a lacquering technique in which the red color can be seen through the translucent lacquer by applying a coat of translucent black lacquer on top of a middle coat of red lacquer. The red color becomes more visible through the lacquer as it is used more and more.

It is recommended for special events or when inviting guests, as it renders the table a gorgeous and traditional Japanese atmosphere. To clean, wipe it with a wet cloth when it gets dirty. It can be quickly rinsed with water, but please make sure to wipe it dry thoroughly.

Laque d'Echizen

La laque d'Echizen est originaire de la ville de Sabae, dans la préfecture de Fukui, au nord du Japon. Riche de plus de 1 500 ans d'histoire, elle est réputée pour son lustre discret et sa beauté élégante. Elle est produite par des artisans expérimentés, chacun spécialisé dans une étape du processus de fabrication.

Face à l'évolution des modes de vie des Japonais et des besoins du marché, les créateurs de laques d'Echizen ont diversifié leurs produits et développé des technologies pour la production de masse. Aujourd'hui, plus de 80 % des laques destinées à l'industrie alimentaire et aux entreprises proviennent d'Echizen. Cette région, riche de siècles de tradition, se réinvente aussi grâce à l'innovation.
