Shibo-Urushi



Description:

Shibo-Urushi or (dappled lacquer), also called shikake-urushi Here sticky lacquer is applied to the piece with various tools. The urushi is made sticky by mixing in Whead Flous, Tofu, Gelatine or any other form of starch. I personally prefer Gelatine and Whea because the end result is much harder than with Tofu
The Shibô lacquer is available in all kind of colors
