Crested-ibis huddle among dried grasses in the frigid waters of a winter river, a scene common throughout the long Japanese winter, depicted in lacquer on the raw polished surface of this bamboo flower vessel dating from the later Meiji to Taisho period. All exposed areas of the vase, top, bottom and inside the basin, are perfectly lacquered black. The birds are performed with gold and silver over black and red lacquer, worn to a very attractive gradient of color. The vase is 13-1/2 inches (3 ...click for details

The vase is 11-1/2 inches (29 cm) tall, 6-1/2 inches (16.5 cm) diameter and comes enclosed in an age darkened wooden box titled 100th cut vas ...click for details

Palm fronds explode in a mishmash of gold across this fine black lacquered wooden tray enclosed in a custom made period wooden box. The artist has used various shades of gold to affect distance and shadow, with the majority in takamaki-e, the furthest most branches in togidashi of fine gold powder. The ro-iro ground is scattered with clouds of gold flake, with the upturned rim lined with a genuine silver band. The tray is 12 x 8-1/4 inches (21 x 30 cm) and is in fine condition, with some mino ...click for details

A very rare Tokkuri (sake flask) in the form of a 3-dimmensional costumed shojo drunken dancer hugging a giant decanter, the whole made of carved wood covered in togidashi lacquer dating from the late Edo or early Meiji period (mid to late 19th century). The lacquer-work is absolutely stunning, with the craftsman employing the whole gamut of lacquer techniques and textures. Both the breather plug and lid are present (the plug visible on top of the dancers head). Aside from the fact it is in e ...click for details

A fantastic Meiji-Taisho Kamakura-Bori tray covered in red and black lacquer deeply carved with a Tai (sea bream), whose name has become synonymous with celebration. It is 14-1/2 by 11 inches (36.5 x 28 cm) and in fine condition. Very powerful imagery! Kamakura bori is called such as it was developed in the Kamakura area during the Muromachi period. A thin piece of wood is carved, then lacquered with red and black (and occasionally green or white) lacquer, generally polishing through the upp ...click for details
