Hironobou

Hironobou is a traditional Japanese technique used in woodworking and carpentry to create strong, precise joints without nails or screws. The method involves carefully shaping and fitting pieces of wood together, often using interlocking cuts or notches, to ensure stability and durability. Hironobou emphasizes craftsmanship, requiring skill to produce seamless, tight-fitting joints that can withstand stress while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of the woodwork. This technique reflects a deep understanding of wood properties and contributes to the longevity and beauty of Japanese architecture and furniture.
