Description

The plain black exterior of this Japanese Meiji period octagonal lacquer box does not prepare you for the beauty of the polychrome interior. An abstract design of chrysanthemum flower heads picked out in various metallic colours and golden pools of water are set against a red background on the internal surfaces of the lid and base. The interior also contains a tray with a red lacquered upper surface and a raised polychrome border.

Dimensions: 17.5 x 17.5 cm Width x 10cm Height
Weight 356 g

Condition: The box is in excellent condition given its age. The only fault is a small hairline on one of the eight corners of the lid rim at the join. All parts fit snugly together.

Postage & packing: £7.50 within the UK. Please contact us for a quote if you would like the box sent abroad.
