Each piece is meticulously crafted by hand by designer and artisan Kojima. The carved areas are coated with a special paint primarily composed of "Kashu," onto which gold powder is applied. The finishing touch involves polishing with specialized tools (agate spatulas) using natural stones, resulting in a refined and elegant golden hue.
