Kazabana uses the Kanji for the wind "kaze"  and flowers "hana" so we can litteraly translate it as wind flowers. It is a Japanese word used to describe a meteorological phenomenon in which snowflakes come riding on the wind, and a light snow that flies when the sky is clear.

Japanese urushi lacquer is made from the sap of the urushi tree, a tradition dating back to the Jomon period (6000BC).
Laquered objects (Shikki) are sensitive to a direct exposure to sunlight. These products cannot be used in microwaves and cannot be washed in dishwasher. Urushi products should be quickly dried  after washing.
