Seven wooden Wajima-nuri plates from the Meiji era, over 150 years old. These are soup bowls, crafted by artisans from natural wood into beautiful shapes and coated with layers of Japanese natural lacquer. The thick gold-painted depiction of the Seven Lucky Gods is artistic. Using them not only during the New Year but also in everyday life seems to bring good luck and fortune. Currently, over 90% of the lacquer used in Japan is imported from China, making Japanese natural lacquerware precious. The natural wood base is repeatedly coated with lacquer, resulting in a very beautiful finish. You can feel the history while enjoying a gorgeous dining experience, creating an artistic and luxurious atmosphere. ◯ Size (cm) Diameter 12-24, Height 3-4.8 Also on sale #Kevin'sRoom Yamada Heian-do, wild birds, sparrows, birds, New Year, Zoni (New Year's soup) Antique, vintage, brocante, Orne de Feuilles, vintage, antique, figurines, feng shui, fine art, antique art, antiques, Buddhist altar fittings, old art, old tools, Buddhism, Buddhist statues, Buddha, Oriental art, Amitabha, tea ceremony utensils, old tools, art gallery, modernism, modern art, contemporary art, African art, primitive art, art, museum, art, mid-century, Japan Folk Crafts Museum, Cubism, Asian goods, Scandinavian goods, American toys, American goods, Showa retro, Taisho, Meiji, Edo, romance, dolls, bisque dolls, figurines, figures, Disney, Arabia, Marimekko, Alessi, Lisa Larson, Bernard Leach, Sori Yanagi, Takashi Murakami, Arita ware, Kutani ware, Ko-Imari, Imari, Yachimun, Onta ware, Koransha, Seto novelty, Shigaraki ware, Mashiko ware, Daigo kiln, Kyo-yaki, Omuro-yaki, Awata ware, Bizen ware, Mino ware, Hasami ware, Seto ware, Tamba ware, Ibe ware, Kiyomizu-yaki, Kyo-yaki, Hakusan pottery, bowls, tea utensils, Akazu ware, Fukagawa Seiji
