What Honma Yosegi Museum (Honma Wood Workshop) is known for

Run by the Honma family in Hakone-Yumoto, this working shop pairs a museum of Edo- through Showa-era yosegi pieces with a studio where visitors watch marquetry demonstrations and glue their own coasters. The adjoining store sells parquetry boxes and wood-mosaic goods produced on site.
