Coral is a very beloved treasure and one of the seven treasures of Buddhism. It is also an important indicator of marine ecology. Whenever its spawning season, coral eggs will erupt together in a tacit understanding, forming a beautiful starry sky or like the magnificent picture of the snow scene in the sea. However, we can see that the beauty of coral spawning in people's eyes is also the efforts of organisms to overcome the difficulties of nature in order to multiply.

Kawari-nuri is one of the urushi crafts. To make these varnished patterns, commonly known as "graining", uses less strokes, but uses a variety of tools to make the patterns. Instead, Graining is usually random, so two pens cannot replicate exactly the same pattern, It is even more difficult to add shells or eggshells in the Kawari-nuri process. The shells and lacquer have to be polished many times to make them smooth and seamless, which takes the test of time.
