About Japanese persimmon
The charm of Japanese persimmon is its rare and mysterious pattern which seems to have had a particular influence on Japanese emperor's aides, nobles, writers, poets, calligraphers, tea masters and the like. Because of its mystique, color, and patterns, it has gained popularity in temples and shrines from ancient times to the present day.
Suri-rashi is a technique in which unrefined lacquer is rubbed onto a wooden base several times. Using materials such as zelkova wood it emanates an indescribable scent. Paste the raw lacquer on a wood base that has been adjusted for filling, coloring, etc. with cloth or special paper, wipe it clean and wipe it dry. If this process is repeated 4 to 5 times, the luster will be accentuated.
In Japan, Buddhists use prayer beads (Juzu, Nenju). Kyoto is a famous producing center of Prayer beads.
