Thank you for viewing. I am selling this item to organize my collection. This is a pair of gold maki-e floral design square trays made in the Bunsei era, with a matching box. The trays feature a refined brown lacquer base with meticulously crafted gold maki-e floral designs, primarily chrysanthemums. This piece exudes both elegance and splendor, showcasing the artistry of the era. The designs are a pair, with different compositions on the left and right trays. They are suitable for kaiseki and tea ceremony utensils, and also make a statement as decorative trays. Currently, the production cost of similar maki-e trays is extremely high, and it is difficult to obtain items of comparable quality new. A letter was included in the box at the time of purchase, and I will include it as well. It appears to say the following: This item is a maki-e work of floral and plant designs that has been passed down from ancient times. The technique is very meticulous, and the quality of the craftsmanship of the time is well represented. This item was owned for many years by a certain family, and I received it later, so I am writing its history here. When handling, avoid moisture and direct sunlight, and store it carefully. That is all. Condition: ・There are scratches and dullness due to aging. There are some minor scratches on the back. ・There are no major cracks or chips. ・There is little flaking of the maki-e, and the overall condition is well-preserved. ・Please check the photos for details. ※As this is an antique item, please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a new-like condition or are concerned about the details. [Shipping Method] I will ship via Rakuraku Mercari delivery service, free of charge. [Notes] All photos are of the actual items in hand. Please check the images. Please note that we cannot accept claims or returns after purchase. Thank you for your understanding.
