The uniqueness of lacquer phonecase is shown in every step. As lacquer surface is handcrafted and multi-layered on metal surface, decorated with the combination of natural materials collecting from the universe blending with local taste that brings the shimmering look of seashells, the splendid shade of diverse colors and the majestic feeling of silver and gold. The product is a demonstration of the traditional technique that requires manual work completely, taking 14 days in an moisture controlled environment with the most unusal step, grinding to expose the hidden drawings under resin.
