Cigar Long Heki-tame Ishime

“Heki-tame Ishime” uses the special blue color lacquer for a base and the same special color dry lacquer powder, and finishs with a shu-ai lacquer.
The combination of the gentle yellow-green like a young grass and the brown of shuai lacquer creates a color that resembles green jasper.

“Ishime” is created with the special technique that makes stone like texture on the surface.
When the dry lacquer powder is sprinkled on a lacquered surface, surface tension works and the powder gathered in places.
Making use of the clumps created by chance, layer the lacquer, let it fix, and then polish it to create “Ishime”.
It will be the “cobblestone-like” finish in the garden.
