To observe the traditional lacquerware manufacturing process, visit Wajima Lacquerware Museum. The production of a single piece involves more than 20 steps, from wood preparation and linen reinforcement to the application of layers of lacquer, carefully dried and polished between coats. The facility is in the center of town on the north side of Route 249, near the New Bridge.
