No audio. This video shows the traditional way to make yakiurushi.Yakiurushi is used for transferring designs on lacquer.
The tools I am using are antiques, the ladle is brass, the oil lamp is from a set from the Edo period filled with vegetable oil.
This video shows application of sabi, jinoko and natural lacquer, as an under coating for metal. The first piece is one I will apply a base of lacquer and then a patterned metal. the second one is a clay vase with the clay being almost like balsalt in having a lot of air pockets in it.
