Yuki-Signed Gold Maki-e Chrysanthemum Motif Tea Caddy (Natsume/Nakatsugi)

This is a Japanese tea ceremony utensil — a natsume-style tea caddy, crafted by the lacquer artist Yuki. The body is cylindrical in form, with clean, refined lines. The exterior is finished in vermilion-red lacquer, densely decorated with realistic chrysanthemum motifs rendered in fine gold maki-e, the petal veins built up in layered gold powder, with the flower centers accented in touches of red lacquer — creating a rich, elegant interplay of gold and red. The chrysanthemum, a classic motif in tea ceremony wares, traditionally symbolizes longevity and refined nobility. The interior is finished in gold lacquer with a silver-powder ground, echoing the exterior decoration and adding depth to the piece. The base is lacquered in red with an inset silver disc bearing the signature "Yuki." The piece retains its original paulownia wood box, inscribed and sealed, ensuring clear provenance. With its finely layered maki-e work — restrained on the outside, richly detailed within — this piece holds both practical value as a tea utensil and considerable appeal as a work of fine lacquer craftsmanship.
