For over 200 Years the Family-Run Workshop has Produced Hand-Hammered Tsuiki Copperware

Hello everyone,
When I was a kid, my dad told me about the reduction of manpower in traditional trades due to the industrialization and modernization of Japanese society. Traditional products started to become outdated and forgotten.

However, there are still young people who dedicate their entire careers to preserving these traditions. We want to honor them as much as we can. Therefore, I decided to create a series of video shows about them and their work, using footage from my friends and myself.

Today’s video will be even more captivating because I have edited the script, rewritten the content, recorded new voices, added new effects, music, and footage to create something truly unique. This new creation is titled: "For Over 200 Years the Family-Run Workshop has Produced Hand-Hammered Tsuiki Copperware."

This time, our main character is a Tsubame-Tsuiki copperware craftsman: Hiyama Akiko (樋山 朗子さん) from Niigata Prefecture, born in 1990. She continues the legacy of Gyokusendo, guided by the 7th generation master, Tamagawa Motoyuki (玉川 基行さん).
