For Koyomo's Hana-Sakura series, handles are finished with ‘Fuki-urushi' (‘wiped lacquer'), a lacquer technique that highlights the natural beauty of the grain of wood. A coat of raw urushi (lacquer) is applied and wiped off several times, bringing out the visual textures and lustre of the wood as well as fortifying it.
