A pair of plates of Hakuichi’s original Kanazawa gold leaf series.

You can enjoy the unique harmony between the natural grain of Douglas Fir and the one-of-a-kind beauty of Kodaibaku (Antique Foil), created by the subtle interplay of nature and craftsmanship—right at your dining table. Crafted using plywood, a technique where thin sheets of wood are layered, pressed, and shaped, this piece is both lightweight and durable, with a water-resistant finish for everyday usability. Its timeless design blends seamlessly into both Japanese and Western table settings, enhancing the presentation of any dish. The Small size comes in a set of two—perfect for serving side dishes or individual portions. About Kodaibaku This is a special series of Kanazawa foil called Kodaibaku, in which no two pieces shine the same. Developed through a unique technique, this foil creates a distinctive and elegant gradation, and has remained a customer favorite since the brand’s founding. Because Kodaibaku contains multiple hues within a single foil, there’s no need for elaborate decoration. Its simple yet expressive shimmer lends a modern flair while still evoking a sense of Japanese tradition. Please note: Each piece is handcrafted by skilled artisans, so the shine and tones may vary—ranging from cooler, bluish tones to warmer, reddish hues. Learn More
