Inden is a traditional craft from Koshu (Yamanashi Prefecture) with a history of over 400 years, in which patterns are applied to deerskin using lacquer. It is a leather product made from processed deerskin, but it is characterized by the fact that the leather is dyed after tanning and then patterns are drawn with lacquer. Deerskin is softer than cowhide, has fine wrinkles on the surface called "shibo," and has been valued since ancient times because it is durable, lightweight, and conforms to the body.
