    Fukushima Aizuwakamatsu-shi Omachi 1-9-3
    "This Aizu lacquerware shop has a history spanning more than 200 years. This black plastered warehouse, built in the late Edo period (1603-1867), has a wide variety of lacquerware, soup bowls and incense containers including ""Aizu-e"" that reproduces traditional Aizu lacquerware patterns and ""Tetsusabi-e."" The building blends Japanese and Western styles that melt in with the modernized cityscape and is a designated historical landscape building that survived the Great Fire of Edo and the Boshin War. It is said that it was the earliest place to have been refurbished to a Western-style folded ceiling in Aizu-Wakamatsu. You will be able to find folk art such as wine cups, candy plates and accessories that fit in with the modern world."
