In Hatajuku, the birthplace of Hakone's Yosegi-zaiku (marquetry), this hall introduces the craftsmanship of creating complex geometric patterns by combining different colored natural woods. Displaying works from the Edo period to modern times, the precision is breathtaking. Trying to solve the famous "Secret Box" puzzles is a popular highlight. You will be amazed to see art created solely from the natural colors of wood without any dyes. These warm wooden items are perfect souvenirs.
