Thank you for viewing! This is a stunning Edo period Wajima-nuri lacquerware bowl with exquisite painting. It is a masterpiece that miraculously survived and was passed down to the present day. The bold design, painted with maki-e, exudes elegance ♡ The graceful depiction of pine trees and cranes soaring in the sky. This is a piece that weaves together boldness and delicacy. The shades of red and gold from this era are unique. You can feel the skill and passion of the maki-e artist in this piece. The appearance of the lacquered bowl is truly enchanting‥♪ It is a fine piece considering its age, but there are some minor imperfections due to the passage of time. Because they were handmade in ancient times, each piece has its own unique character, a quality not found in mass-produced modern items. As shown in photos 2-4, three of the bowls have been repainted, so please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a perfect item. There is no problem with everyday use. This is a high-class masterpiece ♡ Please use it for celebratory occasions. It is a crystallization of the craftsmanship of the artisans of the time. It is in a beautiful condition for its age, but as it is an old item, please consider purchasing if you understand. Size: Approximately 11cm diameter x 8cm height (with lid) Perfect for the coming season. This is a supreme piece, so don't miss this opportunity! Only the bowl is for sale.
