Our craftsmen continue to manufacture gold leaf folding screens, adapting ancient techniques to meet modern needs. With meticulous care, they hammer out the gold leaf and finish each piece with precision, showcasing their artisanal skills. It's a feeling akin to stepping back in time to when ancient craftsmen created gold leaf for feudal lords and temples.
Moreover, Hakuichi's achievements extend beyond traditional crafts, with projects spanning various fields such as interior design for Lexus automobiles, wall decorations for the Tokyo Skytree, and entrance designs for high-end hotels. These accomplishments attest to the global recognition of Hakuichi's craftsmanship and beauty.

Introduction to the Creative Craft Gallery

We handle art and craft pieces such as folding screens meticulously painted stroke by stroke using classical techniques, as well as hanging scrolls, incense burners, and decorative plates employing various techniques.
An Icon of Japan in a Contemporary Format
Mount Fuji has inspired Japanese artists for centuries. Rather than presenting the mountain as a conventional print, this work focuses on material, surface and dimension. Foil and raised decorative techniques create subtle changes in brightness and shadow as the viewer moves.
Designed for Modern Interior Spaces
The compact framed format makes the work suitable for private residences, hotel rooms, reception areas, offices and restaurants. It provides a distinctly Japanese focal point without requiring the scale or installation space of a full folding screen.
