What to expect

After touring the workshop, which has been used by our family for generations, you will experience the technique called Hirazōgan (flat inlay). This involves embedding sheets of silver and copper into a brass plate.
Our artisans will guide you through the process using easy-to-understand explanatory panels they have crafted themselves, ensuring a fun experience for everyone.

The piece you create will then be beautifully finished using the techniques of a Master Silversmith (Shiroganeshi).
The workshop also offers products for sale. Why not select a favorite item as a memento of your visit?
We recommend taking your finished work home as a keychain or a necklace!
