一件作品必須具有足夠的實用性，才能每天使用；必須在原產地使用傳統技術和材料製作而成，而且必須是手工製作的。
日本工藝長期以來以其品質和美感而備受推崇，熟練的手工藝仍然是日本人生活的重要組成部分。 “Utsuwa”意為“日常使用”，體現了日本手工製作的精神，手工製品必須既實用又美觀。本書將我們帶入幕後，進入日本一些最令人興奮的工匠的私人工作室，揭示材料、方法、地點和文化的故事，引導我們穿過安靜的畫廊和色彩繽紛的市場，探索某一件作品起源的核心故事。
A piece must be practical enough to be used every day. It must be crafted at its place of origin, using traditional techniques and materials. And it must be handmade.
Japanese craft has long been revered for its quality and beauty, and skilled craftwork remains an important part of Japanese life. 'Utsuwa', meaning 'for everyday use', embodies the ethos of handmaking in Japan, where handcrafted wares must be as practical as they are beautiful. This book takes us behind the scenes into the private studios of some of Japan's most exciting artisans to reveal stories of material, method, place and culture. It guides us through quiet galleries and colourful marketplaces, where the provenance of a piece is central to its story.
Utsuwa is a love letter to the makers and sellers, and to all those who share the Japanese reverence for tradition and beauty.
