Lacquer Chest

An Edo-period-style black lacquered clothing chest. The surface is adorned with intricate mother-of-pearl inlay depicting an elegant bonsai tree, complemented by gold maki-e embellishments of pine branches and rocks. The deep gloss of the lacquer catches the light, creating a subtle shimmer, while the mother-of-pearl and gold maki-e designs shift in appearance depending on the viewing angle. Ornate metal fittings decorate the four corners, enhancing its dignified aesthetic. The interior is lined with silk, spacious enough to store kimono while also serving as a display-worthy work of art. A masterpiece that embodies the craftsmanship of Edo-period artisans."
