Description
This business card holder from Wajima Kirimoto uses the so called "Makiji" technique to make it very durable. Normally rice powder is used to fix the lacquer on the core of wood, but it is soft and most lacquer ware is easy to scratch. The Makiji technique consists of cloth pasting to the thin wood boards and then ceramics powders from crushed and sifted earth ware is added. The coating process is repeated multiple times. This creates a very hard and durable coating that is almost impossible to scratch. This lacquer technique is usually used to make counter tables of sushi restaurants. There more it is used over time the more it gains luster and the more you will enjoy the card holder over the years.
