- This metal casting shop has over a hundred years of history, since its founder Risaburo began green sand casting processes here near the beginning of the Meiji period. They continue making each piece one by one by hand, preserving traditional techniques while adding new ideas. They make a wide variety of popular items, including tea ceremony items, wine buckets, flower vases, door handles, trinkets and more.

漆器の町、高岡らしいお店です。 お店がある高岡市中央町という地名は電車通りに面した、大福院通りを下りたところ辺りに数軒あるだけの小さな町の地名です。 坂下町と片原町の間といったら地元の人ならばすぐにわかるのですが中央町と聞いても、そんな町あったっけ？といわれます。 「くにもと」とお店の名前を言うだけの方がよほど地元ではどこのお店かと通じます。 漆器ですから伝統的な物で目新しさはありません。 でもそ...

40年ほど前にできた高岡銅器など地場産業の品を紹介する展示施設です。 でもここはもう観光地といえるようなものではありません。 誰もおらずただ開いているだけです。 国道8号線沿いで一番みすぼらしい建物になっています。 もっと地場産業発展のためには考えた施設が必要です。 高岡地域地場産業センターは完全にその役目を終えています。 もっと斬新な再利用計画が必要です。

すずの箸置きをお土産で購入した時に、喫茶店の事を尋ねると中を見学させていただいた。以前大人の休日倶楽部のCMでこのお店が撮影で使われたようで、吉永小百合さんが座った縁側のイスもありました。

Toyama Areas
Toyama is one of the three prefectures that house the Japanese Alps, with its southern and eastern borders comprising one long stretch of mountains, out of which the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route is forged. While traditional crafts fill the northern coastal cities of Toyama and Takaoka, thatched roof houses offer unrivalled views against a backdrop of fantastic scenery at Gokayama in the mountainous area in the south of the prefecture.
