  • Akita cedar is known for its lack of knots and is prized for its high-quality, orderly tree rings. Yoshinobu Shibata’s shop only uses Akita cedar trees that are at least 200 years old.
    There are many aspects to the mage wappa’s charm, but where one most appreciates it, is when it is used as a rice container or bento box. In addition, what makes this rice bowl superb is the curve of the edge. The curve makes it easy to get the rice out, and easy to wash.
    For Nakazawa, who was born in Odate, the mage wappa were something used every day and it's sold in many shops as well. Among these, it was the "mage wappa" of Yoshinobu Shibata’s shop in particular that caught her eye.
    Upon seeing the wares of Yoshinobu Shibata’s shop, better than any other mage wapp. She was sure this was the job she had been searching for.
    The mountain woman who loves her hometown continues to preserve the traditions of the land. Putting her sweat into passing it on to the next generation.

    The chairman Yoshinobu Shibata should be declared a Living National Treasure by the Japanese government, for singled handedly reviving lost techniques alone, to say nothing of the superb quality of his work. The total dedication of Eri Nakazawa is inspirational and moving in her dedication to her work, constantly striving to be better all the while producing the beautiful workmanship. What a wonderful video. Thank you.

      I agree! And I love that he is trying to improve his crafts in subtle ways that still keep it traditional.

      There are three main hallmarks of Living treasures. 1: Location, is it the place where it was traditionally made. 2: Teaching or recording the techniques. 3: Tradition, is it an unbroken line from the past to present. I would speculate it's #3 as he is not part of a long line but rather relatively new. Putting aside the question of whether he deserves it, if you think about it anyone who starts a craft and uses reinvents old techniques could become one.
      The final "requirement" is showing wares and winning awards for your work. This takes a long time. I think there is also a bias towards crafts like sword smithing or sword polishing and against a lunch box. That said out of 300 smiths there's only a handful designated as living treasure and most have already died.

    The traditional process, the master craftsman who stays true to it, and those who live and toil lovingly, dedicatedly, and faithfully by the same values that tradition alive ARE all national treasures. Lucky are we who can only witness, even if only vicariously.

    Dedication to the everyday item isn't a an easy one. Finding easier ways of doing things isn't always best. The old ways need to be passed on, he found a great apprentice👍✌

    I wish she would use a push stick when cutting the wood. I just about cut my thumb off doing the same thing the same way she was cutting the wood on the table saw.

    I'm 8 minutes in and what this 9 1/2 year apprentice did at the cutting table is scary!! Please tell this young lady to use a elongated piece of wood push the plank through the circular saw. Safety above all else.

      The material is too thin and flexible for it. It can literally just fuck off any second. That's why she holds it down with her hands.
