How It's Made - The Wooden Steps of Geta - Japanese Traditional Art
Just like Kimono, which is famously known for it beauty and still well-used in the daily life of every Japanese. Beneath those beautiful layer also lies another beauty- the Geta, Japanese wooden footwear.
There are many things that can made a Geta, what is it. From the quality of wood to the finishing process of polishing.
In this video, we focus on the process rather than the finishing product. The video focus on how the artisan select his wood and how to store them until the wood is ready to be process.
Then the careful grinding and trimming on the wood pieces. After the artisan got the 2 pieces of even wood, he then cut a whole for the strings. Each steps is carefully watched by a higher supervisor.
Onto the last step, which is to sand them and press down onto the Geta to create a shape that hold on to the feet- it also polish the wood.
Have you ever worn a Geta? How does it feel? Please let me know your experiences in the comment section below!

    I have two Nakaya pens, one in red and one in black. I’ve used both of these pens for many years (likely 10+ years). Yesterday I noticed that the section of the red one, had some sort of blisters near the nib. Since this is many layers of lacquer, I’m confused about what could have caused it. I thought they were water droplets at first but then realized they were hard and wouldn’t wipe off. What kind of solvent could cause this? Tom KC3QAC. I made an error, I actually have 3 Nakaya pens, the two mentioned earlier are piccolos with conical ends but I have a third (my first and significantly older) a full size cigar shape, all three are clipless because I don’t like clips. I love all three and hope there is a solution to the blistering and at the very least a means to avoid an future blistering on the two that are still pristine. Thanks again.
