Description： This elegant Japanese lacquer tea caddy (hira-natsume) is the work of Yōsai, decorated with a refined Nanabō (Seven Treasures) maki-e design executed over a hakeme (brush-mark) ground. The vessel is finished in warm vermilion lacquer, with subtle horizontal brush textures visible beneath the surface, lending depth and a quiet sense of movement. Gold maki-e lines form interlocking circular frameworks enclosing auspicious motifs traditionally associated with the Seven Treasures, symbolizing harmony, continuity, and good fortune. The contrast between the soft brush-marked ground and the precise, restrained gold decoration reflects a balance of spontaneity and control, highly valued in tea aesthetics. The compact, low-profile form is characteristic of hira-natsume used in thin tea (usucha) gatherings. Accompanied by its original wooden tomobako, this piece represents a refined example of mid-20th-century lacquer craftsmanship, suitable for tea ceremony use or as a tasteful addition to a collection of Japanese lacquer and tea utensils.
