The exceptional nature of this dining piece stems from the gold that decorates it. Known as Kanazawa-haku, or “gold leaf from Kanazawa”, it is produced through a unique process that beats gold into remarkably thin, paper-like sheets. The final outcome is a magnificent creation: sheets a mere 1/1000 of a millimeter thick.
Kanazawa, a region that sits on the Sea of Japan and bordered by the Japan Alps, produces 99% of Japan’s high-quality gold leaf. Its traditions span as far back as 800AD. The world-famous Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion Temple) in Kyoto is covered almost entirely in gold-leaf was produced in Kanazawa.
