Stone carpenter, Mason. TAKAAKI SAIDA is a Mason who mainly makes Kyoto lanterns in Kameoka.
There are many types of stone lanterns associated with temples and shrines in Kyoto, such as the KANSHUJI type, DAITOKUJI TACCHU's KOUTOUIN type, and the ORIBE lantern.
SAIDA's characteristic is the skill to make it look old as if it were naturally weathered. He cherishes tasteful textures that are not inferior even if there are few decorations.
In addition to Kyoto lanterns, SAIDA also handles various interior and small items such as table lanterns, wine coolers, stone mills, and holders using scrap materials. In addition, we are actively working on SDGs, reusing not only stones newly cut from the mountains but also stones removed from demolition sites, and planning new manufacturing in collaboration with a university in Rome, Italy.
We will look at the work of modern Mason, SAIDA, who protects the proud skills inherited from his father and does not forget to consider the global environment.
