LACQUER WARE FROM YAMADA HEIANDO

A long time seller to the Imperial household, Japanese embassies, renowned shrines/temples and major global enterprises, Yamada Heiando has been selling high quality lacquer ware for over 90 years. They have also received the Emperor’s royal warrant, which is an honorable title given to traditional Japanese brands that the Imperial household has appointed to use. Receiving the royal warrant is no easy feat, in fact it’s impossible to obtain today. The last one that was handed out was in 1954 when they officially stopped giving this honor out. This makes Yamada Heiando one of the oldest stores holding the warrant to this day.
