This is a traditional lantern by Hasegawa, suitable for special occasions.
The spring lacquerware from Hida Takayama, called Shunkei-nuri, has the charm of changing color tones over time, increasing its depth.
The beauty of the double-layered light, combining silk and paper, and the solid thickness of the wooden parts (18mm thick) make this a substantial and impressive item.
A well-balanced and elegant painting is also a highlight.
The light emits a gentle warmth that feels like a soft embrace.
The Obon festival is an important event where loved ones return home once a year. Please light the lanterns while wishing, 'Please come back without hesitation.'
The refined and warm firebox features a design of beautiful large chrysanthemums and charming gentians, and is a lantern that conveys kindness even in its dignified appearance.
Additionally, it features a special lacquer called 'Shunkei-nuri,' which applies a highly transparent coating over the wood to showcase its natural beauty.
It is a lantern that brightens the Obon decorations, welcoming the departed loved ones in a lively manner.
