JOB INTRODUCTION

About our client Brief , Heritage Japanese Bespoke Interiors The Legacy & Continuity Founded in the Meiji era, the company is a venerable 150-year-old institution originating from the historic port of Kobe, Japan.

Its origins are uniquely tied to the golden age of maritime craftsmanship; the founding artisans were highly skilled shipbuilders who transitioned their mastery of wooden vessel construction into the creation of high-precision, Western-style bespoke furniture.

Today, the firm remains a family-held treasure, led by a 4th-generation owner dedicated to preserving the "Takumi" spirit while evolving for a global audience.

Urushi Mastery: Multi-layered lacquer finishes—using techniques employed in the restoration of Japan’s most sacred National Treasures, such as Kinkaku-ji (The Golden Pavilion).

Investment-Grade Craft: The result is a "transparent amber" finish that evolves and grows more lustrous over decades, creating functional heritage artifacts for the home.

JOB REQUIREMENTS

The Ideal You..
