本色是一款生活感的日用漆器，回歸到材質初衷，使用天然樹漆在木材上反覆塗裝，讓毛細孔充分吸收，使器皿有良好的防水效果，同時保留木材原生的紋理，手感溫潤、輕巧、隔熱，可耐溫至180度展現與傳統漆器不同的現代感。 (K)intsugi 系列以金繼 Kintsugi 的第一個字母 (K) 為名。運用漆塡補孔洞與傷痕，施以金箔裝飾，凸顯出修復的痕跡，在器物上呈現時間流動的樣貌。隨著淸洗次數與個人使用慣，金箔可能會逐漸脫落，逐漸顯露底漆，展現獨一無二的侘寂美感。

Natural Finish is a collection of everyday lacquerware that embraces the essence of its materials. Crafted by repeatedly applying natural tree lacquer onto wood, the coating is absorbed deep into the wood's pores, creating excellent water resistance while preserving the natural grain of the timber. The resulting pieces are warm to the touch, lightweight, thermally insulating, and heat-resistant up to 180°C, presenting a contemporary interpretation of traditional lacquerware.
The (K)intsugi series takes its name from the first letter of Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken objects with lacquer and gold. Lacquer is used to fill holes and imperfections, while gold leaf is applied to accentuate the repaired traces, allowing each piece to reveal the passage of time through its surface. With repeated washing and everyday use, the gold leaf may gradually wear away, slowly exposing the underlying lacquer. This natural transformation gives each object a unique character and embodies the aesthetic of wabi-sabi—the beauty found in imperfection, transience, and the marks of time.
