*Urushi lacquer is derived from the sap of the ancient Urushi tree. For more than 9000 years it has been used to create a varnish for dishware, utensils, furniture, and art. Urushi is food-safe and does not deteriorate with age. It is resistant to a variety of alkaline substances, alcohol, acids, water, and heat. The Urushi lacquerware technique is a treasured and highly respected ancient Japanese lacquering art form.
