ABOUT THE ARTISAN
The incense holder is crafted by Nousaku, a metal casting family business located in Takaoka in Toyama Prefecture. This town, which centers around one of Japan’s great (metal) Buddhas, flourished into a metalwork district 400 years ago with the support of feudal lord Maeda. Nousaku, founded in 1916, started its business making Buddhist ritual objects and traditional Japanese tea sets. Adapting to the shift in lifestyle, the current president (5th generation) decided to start making beautiful home accessories using metal-casting techniques, which have been passed down through generations.
