Raden is a traditional Japanese decorative art used in lacquerware, furniture, and musical instruments. This technique involves embedding thin, iridescent slices of seashells like mother-of-pearl into surfaces to create intricate designs. Originating from China and the Korean Peninsula, raden flourished in Japan from the Heian to Muromachi periods. The craftsmanship is highly valued for its beautiful luster and detail, making raden pieces rare and valuable. Today, raden is still used in art, jewelry, and interior decor, admired for its unique shimmer and intricate patterns.
