Thank you for viewing. A three-tiered lacquerware food container in black and red, decorated with a nandina berry pattern. I purchased it about 3 years ago for around ¥18,000. The nandina berry design, which symbolizes happiness and prosperity, is considered auspicious. It creates a festive and solemn atmosphere, perfect for adorning the table on special occasions like New Year's. * "Turning hardship into fortune": The word "nandina" (南天) is associated with "nanten" (難転), meaning "turning misfortune into good fortune." * Protection from evil: Nandina has been cherished since ancient times as a symbol to ward off misfortune. * Business prosperity: The flower language includes "profit" and "wealth," expressing a wish for business success. * Happiness: The red berries have the flower language of "happiness" and "a good home," expressing a wish for happiness. * Symbol of the New Year: The vibrant red berries that ripen in winter are perfect for the image of the New Year and are often used in New Year's decorations. - Color: Black and red lacquerware - Design: Floral pattern - Structure: 3-tiered food container Size: - Material: Lacquer #MercariHalloween
