MIYABORI is a form of special architectural carving used in Japanese temples and shrines. And it’s one of the most obscure and poorly understood forms of Art in Japanese culture, Even though you can see it all over the country.

It is only long trained master carvers that have breathed new life into Miyaboroi with the highest level of skills for hundreds of years.
MIYABORI is the last hidden treasure of Japanese traditional culture.
