Hagoita have long been cherished in Japan as auspicious objects believed to ward off evil spirits and celebrate healthy growth.
In this experience, you will use a traditional hagoita as a canvas to create your own amulet artwork.
Choose Shizuoka-inspired motifs such as Mt. Fuji or Daruma, arranged using the artisan technique of Oshie.
You will also add a meaningful character representing your wish, hand-written with a brush using the elegant Maki-e technique. Gold and colored powders are used to create a vibrant finish, and the experience is guided directly by a skilled artisan.
※Maki-e is available in the Standard and Premium plans.
Traditional Techniques You Will Experience
When decorating your hagoita, you will have the opportunity to experience the following traditional Japanese techniques:
- Oshie
Oshie is a traditional decorative technique in which patterned fabrics and soft padding are layered to create raised, three-dimensional designs. This technique gives the hagoita a warm, tactile feel and adds depth and character to the artwork. - Maki-e
Maki-e is a traditional Japanese lacquer technique where gold or silver powder is delicately sprinkled onto lacquer to create elegant patterns and designs. It has long been used to decorate ceremonial and auspicious objects, adding a refined and graceful finish.
