This study explores the potential of immersive Extended Reality (XR) technologies in lacquer arts education, focusing on how digital tools can enhance traditional, hands-on learning. Lacquer art is known for its specialised, tactile craftsmanship, presenting challenges for integration with digital education methods. This research aims to answer two key questions: 1) Which XR technologies are best suited to improve learning outcomes in lacquer art education? 2) How can immersive XR experiences engage learners and facilitate skill acquisition? The findings suggest that Virtual Reality (VR) stands out as the most effective XR tool for replicating the hands-on nature of lacquer art, allowing learners to practice techniques in a risk-free environment without material costs. Importantly, the study identifies the need for enhanced haptic feedback to simulate the tactile qualities critical to the craft. By bridging the gap between traditional craftsmanship and digital innovation, this research offers a novel framework for integrating XR in lacquer education, promoting cultural preservation while modernising educational practices. These insights provide new opportunities for reimagining how traditional crafts are taught in the digital era, with implications for expanding access and preserving artisana heritage.
