MIKI is a made from Japanese Zelkova wood specially sourced from the Japanese intra-trade market for wood specifically for the building of shrines and temples. Due to the important purpose of this particular wood, quality raw material of this wood specimen for making Lemnos MIKI Clock is limited.  The UNESCO World Heritage Site the Kiyomizu-dera Temple of Kyoto built over 1200 years ago in the year 778, was made entirely with Japanese Zelkova.
 
The Japanese Zelkova is a hard and strong material, which features a number of ring markings. The varied appearances of these trees indicate their age and the type of atmosphere they grew in. The surface of the material is carefully polished.  This Clock can also be used as a table clock with a removable stand.
 
Urushi means "lacquer" in Japanese.  The MIKI Urushi Suki is painted with Japanese traditional lacquer by skilled lacquerware craftsmen.
