Hidehira lacquerware, which was born in the Oshu Fujiwara culture, has been passed down by the master craftsmen of Marusan lacquerware, which boasts a history of over 100 years. The spring and autumn flower patterns arranged in the basic tones of vermilion, black, and gold, and the elegant shape that fits comfortably in the palm of your hand, give a sense of tradition but modernity, and its robustness is timeless. It blends into everyday life and soothes the hearts of those who use it.

Sake Folk Culture Museum

Seki no Ichi Sake Brewery was named by Emperor Meiji's younger brother, Prince Kanin, who said, ``Make good sake that will please the people of the world.'' The ``Sake Folk Culture Museum'' inside is made up of valuable earthen storehouses that still retain traces of the time of its founding. The two-story wooden storehouse is the largest in Tohoku. Inside, some of the over 1,600 sake-making tools are on display. You can also see the brewer's room, which enshrines Matsuo Daimyojin, the god of sake, and materials related to the production of rice, which is essential for sake. In 2006, the ``Ichinoseki Literature Storehouse'' was opened to honor 12 writers associated with Ichinoseki.
