What is [Ottchil] natural lacquer?
Ottchil is a traditional Korean lacquer technique. It is natural paint made by refining the sap collected from the korean "Ott" tree. It is a 100% natural paint obtained from nature and does not generate any environmental hormones at all.

When the surface of Ottchil Trees are scratched, the tree releases sap.
(Extracting Ottchil Sap requires decades of skillful experience and know-how).
This sap is carefully collected and skillfully refined for use as lacquer.

The coating process, in which layers of lacquer must be repeatedly applied and left to dry, requires great patience.
Producing lacquerware is a notoriously prolonged and labor-intensive process, which has sometimes been called the “art of time”

If the refined ottchil is applied 7-8 times on the wooden product, water does not seep into the wood and the urushiol component in the ottchil has an antibacterial effect. Thus ottchil lacquer products are very hygienic and help prevent diseases by inhibiting the growth of bacteria by sterilizing lacquer also enhancing the durability and functionality of wood products.

• Do not leave to soak in water overnight as mineral salts may attack the ottchil surface.
