Good condition. Description: This is a beautifully crafted Japanese suzuri-bako (硯箱), or writing box, traditionally used to store calligraphy tools such as inksticks, brushes, and an inkstone. The exterior features a carved woodgrain surface adorned with colorful inlays of chrysanthemums and foliage, evoking seasonal beauty and refinement. The lid's tactile texture and floral relief combine rustic charm with intricate artistry, typical of high-quality craftsmanship. Inside, the box contains an inkstone for grinding ink, a small water dropper, and two writing brushes neatly stored in designated compartments. This harmonious arrangement not only reflects functionality but also the aesthetic values of traditional Japanese writing culture, where even utilitarian objects are treated as art. Likely originating from the late Edo to early Showa period, it exemplifies the integration of nature, art, and daily life. NOTICE
