AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Product Description
A two-tiered Japanese lacquerware jubako (stacking box) used for osechi ryori, the traditional New Year's celebratory cuisine. The lustrous black lacquer exterior features flowing aged pine trees and three soaring cranes rendered in gold makie (sprinkled gold lacquerwork). The cranes' wings are designed to transition from gold to white. The pine trunks on the lid and sides are accented with delicate raden (mother-of-pearl inlay) work. The interior is finished in vermilion lacquer, creating a striking contrast against the black exterior. The set comprises two tiers and a lid. The lid and one side panel feature the decorative design, while the remaining sides are plain black. This piece is equally suited for New Year's dining or as a decorative display.

Seller's Story
A Japanese living in Japan, I appreciate traditional and modern art.
I specialize in selecting artworks that reflect quiet strength, refined beauty, and timeless craftsmanship of Japanese culture. My collection focuses on pieces that carry a story—whether traditional ukiyo‑e prints, contemporary works inspired by wabi‑sabi aesthetics, or handcrafted items created by regional artisans.
I take pride in offering works that are both visually compelling and culturally meaningful. Every item is carefully curated for authenticity, condition, and artistic value, ensuring that bidders can participate with confidence.
My goal is to connect international collectors with the richness of Japanese artistry—pieces that bring harmony, character, and a touch of Japan’s spirit into your home.
I look forward to sharing these works with you and hope they inspire the same appreciation and joy they bring to me.
