Beautiful scenery that can only be seen because of the horse chestnut trees. The cup, which has an attractive depth of color, is a proud masterpiece created through a collaboration between Ooka Lacquerware, a long-established Yamanaka lacquerware company, and Kyoto Sajikame. It is painted in gold to resemble the horizon, and is named ``Hyakkei'' to express the feeling of enjoying the scenery created by nature, including the sky, atmosphere, water, and greenery. The cup is carved out of a horse chestnut tree using Yamanaka-nuri's turning technique, and is attractive for its thinness and smooth texture. It is also attractive that the color changes depending on the season, perhaps because the oil content in the material changes. It is truly a unique cup in a world where the scenery changes one by one. There are 6 colors in total. It's a bright color that can also be used as a gift. The bottom is engraved with the Kyoto spoon turtle. It can be used for various celebrations such as birthdays, Father's Day, Mother's Day, Respect for the Aged Day, 60th birthday, wedding gifts, etc. The cool cup has a beautiful silhouette and features a large diameter and a smooth mouthfeel.

Sujihiri, which characterizes Yamanaka's turning products, is a method of creating a kind of design by making marks on the wood with a plane, and there are about 5 patterns such as itomesuji, potter's wheel suji, birisuji, flat groove suji, rice ear suji, and handle suji. There are ten types. Yamanaka lacquerware, which is blessed with an abundance of raw wood materials, uses materials such as zelkova, cherry blossoms, and horse chestnuts for vessels of various sizes, and proceeds through the stages of base, lacquer, and maki-e depending on the purpose, resulting in beautiful colored and glossy lacquerware.
