Description from the seller
An elegant Japanese Ryukyu-style lacquerware sweet box featuring a distinctive diamond-shaped form and a beautiful vermilion-red finish.

The piece consists of three separate components: a decorative lid, a container, and a matching raised stand.
Combining practical functionality with artistic elegance, this lacquerware piece is suitable for serving traditional Japanese sweets or displaying as a decorative collectible.
