Kogei Artist vol.6 Lacquer Artist Kenji Omachi

Kenji Omachi is highly skilled in traditional techniques using lacquer, such as Maki-e. In his search for new methods of expression, he discovered and feel in love with Kyoto Opal, a man-made gem developed by the KYOCERA company. He remains a pioneer in inlaying this new material, which is used in the same way as inlaid mother of pearl.
