Nousaku Egg Incense Burner - Silver
Nousaku (能作): A Master of Traditional Craft and Modern Design
Nousaku is a renowned Japanese casting manufacturer that has upheld the legacy of Takaoka copperware, a centuries-old craft originating in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture. With roots tracing back over 400 years, this artisanal tradition is revered for its exceptional beauty, precision, and functionality.
The Art of Takaoka Copperware
Creating Takaoka copperware involves a meticulous, multi-step process that combines craftsmanship and artistry:
1. Prototype Creation: Every product begins with the careful design and crafting of a prototype.
2. Mold Making: Skilled artisans develop molds based on the prototype, setting the foundation for each piece.
3. Casting: Molten metal is poured into the molds with precision, capturing even the finest details.
4. Finishing: Processes such as welding, polishing, and shaping bring out the metal’s distinctive shine and texture.
5. Decoration: Final touches, including engraving, coloring, and patination, imbue each piece with unique character.
Each stage of production is carried out by specialists with extraordinary technical skill, ensuring the highest level of quality and authenticity.
