Seikichi Izumi X, the sole inheritor of the 370 years of Urushi Lacquer brushi making

ONLINE PRESENTATION

This online lecture centers on the craft of urushi brush making, presented by Seikichi Izumi X, a lacquer brush artisan from a lineage dating back to the 17th century. For over 370 years since Seki Izumi I, he has been the sole inheritor of traditional Edo techniques, using human hair as the primary material, passed down exclusively through oral tradition from generation to generation, and continues to preserve them to this day,
