These are black persimmons.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e It is said that only one black persimmon tree is found in every thousand trees in areas where it is common, making it incredibly rare. Even when it is found, the log is small, and when sawn, the handle disappears, cracks, and distortions occur, resulting in only a small amount of material. Furthermore, because the handle is uneven, it is necessary to remove the handle and match it, and as the material becomes smaller, only a small portion of the wood can be used.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWith typical fine wood, the shading of the annual rings creates a pattern, but with black persimmons, in addition to the shading of the annual rings, a unique grain pattern is also present. The nutrients contained within the persimmon tree cause some kind of change, resulting in the grain pattern appearing on the light brown base fabric, resembling a sumi-e (ink painting). This is the reason for its unique beauty.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e This black persimmon has beautiful striped grain. Surprisingly, it also has overlapping shrinkage grain, making it an even rarer specimen among rare black persimmons. It is something you rarely come across.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e The numerous treasures made from black persimmons in Shosoin prove that black persimmon crafts already existed around 1,300 years ago. The culture of black persimmons is thought to have been passed down as a tradition by craftsmen, but it was revitalized by the tea ceremony and was loved by feudal lords, high-ranking samurai, and wealthy merchants as a fine wood for their mansions and as tea utensils. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e [Features of KOMA bespoke case]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e□ Wood grain matching\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e By cutting each piece side by side, the grain of the wood connects, and with the utmost care, the grain of each piece is matched with the aesthetic sense and skill of a skilled craftsman, with great care taken to make the most of the natural beauty of the wood. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e □Three-sided fastening\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e By joining the top, side, and front panels at a 45-degree angle, the wood grain is not interrupted, resulting in a beautiful finish, and the joints are less likely to shift over time, making it stronger and more difficult to achieve. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e □ Assembly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Assembling the three-sided fastening is a delicate task that can only be accomplished by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Dozens of special tools, such as hammers and hammers, are used to fasten the wood between the upper and lower boxes, making it a difficult process in which even the slightest amount of force applied can cause the wood to go out of alignment. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e □Tongue processing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Insert 0.5mm wood pieces into the corners of the three-sided joint to reinforce them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis increases the strength and creates beautiful designs that can only be achieved through handwork. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e □Finishing\/painting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Polishing with a plane and sandpaper brings out the grain and brings out the beauty of the wood to the fullest.
