\nTugaru lacquerware, a traditional craft from Japan\u2019s Aomori Prefecture, is also known as \u201ebaka-nuri\u201d (\u201einsanely meticulous lacquering\u201d) because of the extremely long and complex production process. The lacquer is applied and polished dozens of times until a single piece is created. The geometric patterns and mirror-like sheen that emerge from the many layers create a timeless beauty.
\nMiyako Aoki, who lives in Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture, is still finding her way after finishing high school and works in a supermarket to help support her family. When her father loses the motivation to continue the family\u2019s dwindling trade, Miyako is forced to look back to the past and her long-hidden passion \u2013 hesitant but determined to take up the tradition of Tugaru lacquer and move forward.
