Experience making KYO-KUKSA Mugs with Tansu wood
Last update
"Tansu wood" is the name given to cedar and cypress grown in the Nakatan region along the Yura River. Historically, this high-quality timber has been traded at high prices. Kuksa is a traditional craft of the Sami people in Finland. It is said that those who receive it as a gift will be happy. You will sand an 80%-finished KYO-KUKSA wooden mug to complete it yourself. You can shave off the remaining 20% yourself to shape it to your needs. In this hands-on making experience, you can learn about the warmth of wood and the importance of placing value in things.
