| As a commemorative event for the exhibition "Kiyomasa-Living National Treasure Kenji Suda's Woodworking Crafts-", a "Gallery Talk by Kenji Suda, Living National Treasure" was held on Friday, June 3 and June 17 (Fri). did. |  |
| First of all, this is the explanation of the highlight exhibition "Hiji Toho". It is a small chest of drawers connected to two drawers on the left and right, and the outside is a French deer maple material that is famous as a violin back plate. It was said that the change was made using the material of Canadian bird eye heather. The shape seems to be asymmetrical. |  |
| Next is the long Clero Wallnut table "Shakkyo" on display in the center. It is said that the bridge was associated with the structure of the legs, and it was named "Ishibashi", which is said to follow the Bodhisattva's Pure Land. Claro Wallnut is a type of walnut tree planted for edible use in California, which is now difficult to obtain, but this table material is made from a giant log that Suda obtained when he was in his 30s. It seems to have been made. |
 |
| It's the corner of the third generation of the shimonoshi. Mr. Suda's grandfather, Sogetsu Suda's grandfather, "Mikurajima Island Mulberry Hexagonal Kitchen", his father, Sosui Suda, "Goes Kasuga-type Kitchen", and Suda's "Obaku Wiping Urushi Kasuga-style Buddha" are lined up. Along with the modeling of the work, there was an explanation of the mulberry on Mikurajima Island (Mikurajima), which is said to be a famous tree. |  |
| From here, there is a corner unique to Takenaka Carpentry Tools Museum. It is a backstage of production that introduces wood used with fingers, finishing materials, tools, and gesture techniques. First of all, he explained the various trees used for Mr. Suda's work while looking at 21 types of tree species samples and valuable logs. |
 |
| Next is tools and finishing materials. The leaves of pirates and gura (muku) have long been polishing materials, and even in the modern era when sandpaper has spread, it seems that woodworking is still active. He also explained how he made inlay materials such as shellfish and dyeing angles, including mulberry broth that he rarely sees. |  |
| And it is about how to assemble the materials used in woodworking art. The most basic gesture of fingertips is called "Uchihozo". On the other hand, the complex "Mizugumi" looks like a shape of water, so it seems that it is a method of assembly used for kumite of long braziers. |

It was a valuable opportunity to listen directly to the story of living national treasures with about an hour commentary. |
