Thank you for viewing. I am clearing out furniture and tableware due to my family's move. Non-smoking, no pets. These items were used and stored in a clean environment. This is a writing box with intricate carvings by Nyosetsu Shinohara, a wood carving lacquer artist who has repeatedly won awards at the Japan Traditional Art Crafts Exhibition. Width: 41.5cm (round) Height without lid: 11.5cm Height with lid: 13cm It seems that inkstones and writing tools were kept in it at my parents' home. There is almost no sign of use, and I think it is generally in beautiful condition. I believe this item is over 50 years old. Currently, works by Nyosetsu Shinohara are traded for over 100,000 yen. How about it for those who are looking for one?
