Japan Travel: Kiso Lacquerware traditional handcraft, Nagano18 Moopon
acquer ware is a particular specialty of Japan, and especially a specialty of Kiso Valley. The smooth, glazed bowls and dishes are enjoyed for their aesthetic appeal and complement the flavors of a Japanese meal. Recently, the most commonly used lacquer ware is the bowl in which miso soup is served, called Owan.
Kiso-Hirasawa is a village that developed outside the post town of Narai during the Edo Period. It gradually developed a strong reputation as its lacquer products became renowned throughout Japan. Today, Kiso-Hirasawa still takes advantage of its popularity as a producer of lacquer goods.
A number of lacquer stores are located throughout Kiso-Hirasawa, as well as a museum about lacquering called Kisoshikkikan. It is almost all in Japanese, but has many impressive lacquered goods on display. It also exhibits the tools and techniques that are involved in the lacquering process. The shops offer lacquerware of all types that are usually quite expensive, though modestly priced goods can also be found.
Kiso-Hirasawa is located just two kilometers or a two minute train ride north of Narai. Limited express trains between Nagoya and Nagano do not stop at Kiso-Hirasawa Station. Instead, change to a local train at Shiojiri or Kiso-Fukushima. Kiso-Hirasawa's town center is compact and can be explored on foot.
