We were so taken with the footage that Evelyn Teploff-Mugii sent from Japan, that we created this short video to share as much of it as we could. In this clip, Evelyn takes us on a walking tour of her adopted home-town, the ancient cultural center of Kanazawa, complete with cherry blossoms in full bloom. She also explains in a bit more detail how she makes her beautiful kin maki-e accessories.

What gorgeous work, Evie! Congratulations! And you! You look so beautiful, so self confident. I love your sensitivity to the fusion of old and new in your designs.
What an artist.
