Lacquer, Wood, and Stone in Kagawa Prefecture

There are tons of craftspeople and artists in and around Takamatsu. We started our day here at the Takamatsu Art Museum, which is winding down a really incredible exhibit on urushi, Japanese lacquerware.

(BTW, if you're ever in Seoul instead, their craft museum has an amazing exhibit on the lacquer process for Korean lacquerware that is not to be missed.)
