What Combo is that?
Urushi and bamboo Satou. Sometimes you find one or the other, but both are not as common from what I’ve seen.

I got this backwards. Tsuishu is the layered lacquer in the stem, Urushi is his unique finishing technique.Is the Urushi the color banding near the stem?

So Brian L explained to me that Tsuishu is created with layers of Urushi. Urushi is also the special finish on Satou pipes that takes several coats spanning several days. The Tsuishu is old stock that his father made.
Gorgeous! Is the notch in the third photo there to line up with the notch in the bamboo? And what is is that we’re seeing in the notch, is it just the stem or part of a reverse tenon?
Lots of Japanese sites explaining.
After further reading the color bands should be carved Urushi and Tsuishu lacquer.

My understanding is Tsuishi means Red Lacquer.
