70s Next Chisoku
The name "Chisoku" comes from the Zen phrase "I am content with what I know," which means to be aware of one's own contentment and to cherish what one truly likes and finds beautiful, so that one's life will be richer and more fulfilling.
This is a one-of-a-kind collaboration between frame craftsman Masato Kataoka and lacquer artist Issey Hattori. A beautifully crafted frame with a modern sensibility without any unnecessary part and it is a perfect fit for the Chisoku concept, including the process of handcrafting by craftsmen.
