【History of the product】
Kanazawa's 450-year tradition of gold leaf Kanazawa accounts for more than 98% of Japan's gold leaf production.
Gold leaf is used for temples and shrines of great historical value, such as Kinkakuji Temple and Nikko Toshogu Shrine, as well as for lacquerware, pottery, and various other crafts. Gold leaf has developed along with 36 other traditional crafts that have been handed down since the time of Lord Toshiie Maeda, the founder of the Kaga Domain. Kanazawa foil, which was a material, is now recognized as a Kanazawa foil craft today and has established itself as a representative traditional craft in the craft kingdom of Kanazawa."
