Description from the seller

A beautiful vintage Japanese wooden lacquer box, entirely finished in deep black lacquer and exquisitely decorated with traditional raden (mother-of-pearl inlay).

The lid is the highlight of this elegant piece, featuring a striking pair of phoenixes facing each other in the center, surrounded by intricate floral motifs. The shimmering mother-of-pearl creates a beautiful contrast against the deep black lacquer, giving the box a refined and luxurious appearance.

The combination of phoenix and floral decoration reflects the sophisticated decorative traditions of Japanese lacquerware. With its versatile size and elegant design, this box can be used as a document box, writing accessory box, inkstone box, jewelry box, or decorative storage box.
