Design Award Winning Lacquerware

Immerse yourself in the world of Yamanaka lacquerware, designed to enhance your everyday experiences. At their workshop in Ouchi Village, Yamanaka, Ishikawa Prefecture, they honor the time-honored Yamanaka process, meticulously grinding wood and skillfully applying Japanese lacquer (Urushi). Each lacquerware item beautifully blends tradition and practicality, encouraging you to embrace their presence in your daily life and savor the soothing warmth of wood.

Founded in 1912 by Kyosaku Asada as a traditional Yamanaka Lacquerware maker, Asada Lacquerware has continued introducing new designs ideal for modern-day life.

Brand History

Asada Lacquerware prides itself as a producer of lacquerware suitable for everyday life. Founded in 1912 by Kyosaku Asada, Asada Lacquerware embodies the rich legacy of Yamanaka craftsmanship. Initially, a woodworker in Ouchi Village, Yamanaka Onsen, Kyosaku trained ten apprentices. His son, Takao Asada, carried the mantle, steering the company through economic growth. Takashi, Takao's son, and current president, transformed the family legacy, establishing the Asada craft of Japan, inc. in 1977. A pioneer, Takashi ventured into retail with "Urushi no Utsuwa Asada" in 1998. 

The Asada journey unfolded through generations, introducing innovative concepts like Western lacquerware by Haruhiko in 2013 and earning accolades like the Utsuroi Cup's Good Design Award in 2018. Upholding tradition with advanced Yamanaka potter's wheel techniques, Asada Lacquerware offers exquisite pieces like "Fuki-Urushi" and "Murakumo lacquerware," blending artistry with everyday utility. The scenic backdrop of the countryside adds to the allure of Asada's craft.
