Product name Mugen Musou Kendama
Product description
Kendamas that look beautiful even on display
Hatsukaichi has a long history with wood and woodworking. Since days of old, it has prospered as a collection site for lumber from the mountains of the Chūgoku region, and in the Edo period (1603-1868), the Hatsukaichi Rokuro woodworking technique from Miyajima was developed. Kendama toys are said to have originated in Hatsukaichi in 1921, becoming wildly popular in the early Showa period (1926~). However, makers gradually declined and in 1998, kendama were no longer being manufactured in Hatsukaichi.
Then, around 2000, Iwata Co. received a request from the City of Hatsukaichi to manufacture kendama and began creating high-quality kendama. In 2013, they began sales of the Mugen Musou kendama model.
The Mugen Musou is made using high level techniques, such as high precision woodworking derived from Hatsukaichi Rokuro (wood lathe craft) and painting techniques that produce a beautiful and durable finish. Not only created with user friendliness in mind, it's also a work of art that shines all on its own.
