We are Richu Lacquer Co., Ltd (Sunrise lacquer) who make natural lacquer crafts, and our studio is located in northern Taiwan. Lacquer is implicative and elegant and bears thousands of years of cultural inheritance in art crafts, which is something we want to pass down to our offspring. Since 2014, we have been participated in new product development tasks to bring a brand new combination of the new and the old.
The main origin of natural lacquer sap is East Asia. After the varnish film of lacquer is formed, it became hard, moisture-proof, insulative, acid & alkaline resistant, and can even defy years' erosion. For example, the red-lacquered wooden bowls unearthed in the Hemudu culture site still show bright colors, well preserved through thousands of years of Chinese culture. The technique of lacquer film is an environmentally friendly and low pollution traditional technology, we blend traditional lacquer art into our daily life to create innovative new items with quality.
