Wajima-nuri (Wajima lacquerware) serving trays from the Meiji era. Set of two. They don't have legs, so they can be used on a table. *The sake cup is for reference only. Size: Approximately 36.5cm wide, 3.8cm high, 5mm thick rim. The deep, lustrous black lacquer is achieved by repeatedly applying layers of lacquer to the sturdy base unique to Wajima. The wood base utilizes bending techniques, and subtle curves are applied not only to the corners but also to all four sides. The bottom has chamfering on both sides for easy handling. This demonstrates high technical skill. There are some minor scratches, wear, and areas of flaking. There is no warping or wobbling. Please understand that these are antique items. Would you like to own these if you like old items and antiques? Thank you.
