What Hakuza (箔座) is known for
Hakuza produces gold leaf using the centuries-old entsuke technique, a method recognized as an intangible cultural asset, and supplies leaf used in restoring national treasures and temples. From its Kanazawa storefronts, including one in the historic Higashi Chaya district, the company sells gold-leafed tableware, interior objects, cosmetics, and edible leaf for everyday use and formal gifts.
