Japanese Urushi Lacquered Wooden Round Box, Kudzu Flower Motif

Meet our Japanese Urushi Lacquered Wooden Round Box with Kudzu Flower Motif, handcrafted in Echizen, Japan. This round wooden box is finished with a rich layer of urushi lacquer and adorned with a delicate kudzu flower motif — a symbol of resilience and quiet beauty. Its smooth, lustrous surface reflects the depth and tradition of Japanese craftsmanship.

Perfect for storing jewelry, keepsakes, or small personal items, it also stands beautifully on its own as an artful object. Each piece comes carefully packaged in a washi paper–covered box, making it an ideal gift.

Rooted in the city of Sabae, Echizen is celebrated for its mastery in urushi lacquer, washi paper, fine cutlery, and woodwork. The nearby town of Kawada remains the heart of Echizen lacquerware, where small workshops—often family-run or single-artist studios—collaborate under the Echizen Lacquerware Cooperative. This community fosters the meeting of seasoned artisans and emerging designers, sustaining one of Japan’s most vibrant and innovative craft traditions.
