He honed his craft under the tutelage of Shinichi Moriguchi before establishing his own independent practice. The wagatabon is a wooden tray with origins in the mid-Edo period in Wagatani Village, Ishikawa Prefecture. Its production was nearly lost in the mid-Showa era when the village was submerged by a reservoir dam, but has since been revived by contemporary artisans. Each piece is made using traditional methods: logs are split with wedges and a mallet, and the green wood is shaped entirely by chisel.","related_posts":false,"official":[{"details":{"name":"Instagram","url":"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kazahana_wagatabon\/"}}]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/makers\/35612","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/makers"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/makers"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35612"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"makers_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/makers_category?post=35612"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
