Magewappa-making experience (Shibata Yoshinobu Shoten)

Magewappa is a wooden box made by strips of wood such as cedar and cypress being steam-heated and bent. It is regarded as a traditional Japanese craft. Odate, Akita is one of the most famous places for Magewappa. You can make a Magewappa while receiving instructions from an expert at Shibata Yoshinobu Shoten. Magewappa crafts that provide the warmth of wood are also available for purchase here. Why don’t you make a one-of-a-kind Magewappa lunch box as a memento of your trip to Akita?
