Description from the seller

This Japanese three-tiered lacquerware box features a glossy black lacquer finish with three-dimensional pine-patterned maki-e decoration. The pattern continuously wraps around the three layers of the box, which has an elegant vermilion lining. It comes with its original outer packaging box. Pine patterns symbolize longevity and good fortune in Japanese art. The exquisite craftsmanship makes this box suitable for use as a Japanese banquet food box, as well as a collectible lacquerware piece with a distinctly Eastern aesthetic.
