"Katakuchi Sugi" is cedar tree shaped vessel that can be selected from three sizes, large, medium and small, according to the application.

The body part is made of Zelkova wood and the spout part is made by carving Japanese white-bark magnolia wood with “Kurikiji (literary means hollowed wooden cores for lacquer ware)” technique. The carefully made spout does not drip when pouring.
It can be used not only for serving Sake but also for salad dressing pot. It can also be used as a bowl.
The beautiful shaped vessel adds color to the table.
Soft texture and a depth of expression which are unique to Urushi lacquerware are created
using "Hon Kataji" painting technique.
Lacquer cloth is applied to natural wood on the parts of the piece that are easily damaged, such as edges, base footings. Then, diatomaceous earth collected from Mt. Komine in Wajima City that has been fired and made into a powder called Wajima jinoko is applied as a base coat, then it is polished, given a mid-coat, then a top coat. The more you use it, the more it gains brightness and luster and you can enjoy this change of expression over the years. A vessel is made by skills of artisan unique to a wood core manufacturer.
