This volume examines the evolution of Japanese craftsmanship as it transitioned from the late 19th-century world's fairs to the avant-garde movements of the 1920s and 1930s. Through a scholarly analysis of ceramics, lacquerware, and textiles, the text explores how traditional techniques adapted to modern aesthetic sensibilities and global market demands. It provides a comprehensive look at the intersection of cultural heritage and industrial design during a pivotal era of artistic transformation.
