Owaki was a prominent lacquer artist who flourished in the Shōwa period. The pot displays the meticulous art of "Gold and Silver Maki-e," a technique where gold and silver powder is mixed with lacquer and painted. The piece is then polished to achieve a brilliant shine. The vase displays a seamless gradient of green hues, beautifully adorned with a subtle fern design, showcasing the artist's keen attention to detail, while its deceptively simple bracken design lends it an undeniable charm and elegance. Accompanied by its original wooden box, bearing the artist's calligraphy and seal, this item promises authenticity and an unparalleled aesthetic appeal. A true testament to Japanese lacquerware excellence, this vase will be a cherished addition to any collection. Top opening diameter is approximately 2cm. Dimensions: approx. H 30.5 cm W 16 cm L 16 cm ・Please make sure to review all the provided information and images before placing your bid. Thank you for your interest, and happy bidding!
