Hida Woodworking: A 1,200-Year Tradition of Masterful Craftsmanship

The woodworking tradition of Hida traces its origins back to the Hida Takumi System established in the 8th century. This unique system exempted the Hida region from taxes in exchange for sending skilled woodworkers to the capital to contribute to central architectural projects. This arrangement, which lasted over 400 years, cemented the reputation of Hida craftsmen as diligent and masterful artisans, a legacy reflected in historical literature. Today, this tradition remains vibrant, with over 30 artisans from the Hida region recognized as "Contemporary Master Craftsmen." The techniques and spirit of Hida craftsmanship have been meticulously passed down through generations, preserving its rich heritage from ancient times to the present.
