【Product details】

This elegant lacquer document box features a refined composition in Kōdaiji maki-e style. Set against a lustrous black lacquer ground, the design wraps seamlessly around the exterior, depicting a plum tree with delicate blossoms and slender bamboo leaves. The reverse side of the lid interior reveals a serene scene with two cranes standing amid stylised waves.

Kōdaiji maki-e is a distinctive decorative style that emerged in the early Edo period, originally developed for Kōdaiji Temple in Kyoto. Characterised by graceful natural motifs and elegant asymmetry, this style employs finely applied gold powder, often with sprinkled gold flakes, to create a sense of understated luxury and flowing harmony.

The plum blossom, a symbol of resilience and renewal, is revered for blooming in the late winter, while bamboo represents flexibility and strength. The crane is a traditional emblem of longevity and auspiciousness, often featured in celebratory contexts. Waves, stylised in flowing gold lines, evoke the ever-changing nature of life and the passage of time.

Several plum blossoms and bamboo leaves are accented with nashiji, a decorative technique using flecks of gold to create a soft shimmering surface. The trunk of the plum tree is further enriched with tiny fragments of gold foil for added brilliance.

Maki-e is a traditional Japanese decorative technique where gold or silver powder is sprinkled onto wet lacquer to produce intricate designs. Nashiji employs a similar method, using gold or silver flecks to achieve a pear skin-like texture, offering a unique shimmer and depth to the surface.

There is noticeable wear due to age, including surface scuffs, discolouration, minor chips to the wooden structure and lacquer, and a few small dents. One prominent crack is present on the base of the lacquered box. The wooden storage box shows signs of wear and looseness at all four corners. Please refer to the photographs for a detailed view of the condition.

Dimensions: approx. H 16.5 cm W 42.5cm D 32.5 cm
