Kumiko craft experience
Experience the craftsmanship of artisans in Noshiro, the “City of Wood”!
Noshiro City is a town at the mouth of the Yoneshiro River, and has a convenient port for transporting Akita cedar cut down upstream. Lumber is exported both domestically and overseas, and the city has been called "the No. 1 wooden city in the Orient."
Why don't you experience Kumiko craftsmanship in Noshiro, the “City of Wood”, where craftspeople hand-craft Kumiko crafts by combining wooden parts from scratch?
The wooden parts are assembled from scratch. There is some fine work involved, but the process of the parts fitting together and the pattern being created is addictive!
Work surrounded by the scent of wood, and take home the finished product with you, along with the aroma.
