The zelkova wood frame used for the MIKI clock is finished with Suki-urushi, a traditional crafts from Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture.
Suki-urushi has a beautiful finish that highlights the unique grain of the zelkova wood beneath the transparent lacquer surface. This clock enables you to fully appreciate the time that the zelkova tree has taken to grow, along with the time and effort that the craftsmen devote to the lacquering process.
The clock hands are finished in gloss paint to match the glossy feel of the lacquer. A special printing process that raises the printed surface is used for the numerals and indicators on the clock face.
Material:Japanese zelkova, Glass

The grain of the wood is seen through the finished translucent and shiny lacquer.
