About the Item
A simple and elegant Japanese lacquer hibachi stand with imperial chrysanthemum mon and copper liner, now modified as an usubata, late Meiji Period, circa 1900, Japan.
The refined black lacquer hibachi stand of low table or stand form, with cabriole legs and gilt copper fittings. The black lacquer decorated with offset sixteen petal chrysanthemums in gold maki-e lacquer. The sixteen petal chrysanthemum is the symbol for the Imperial Seal of Japan, and the personal symbol of the Emperor.
Small stand or table from hibachi such as these were used by the nobility and literati as incense burners. The copper liner would be filled with sand with hot coals placed on top. The coal would be used to light incense sticks, which would then be placed upright in the sand.
The large copper lining rests in the large central opening and is removable. It is currently configured as an usubata, or vessel for ikebana (flower arranging). A large circular Kenyan (flower frog) with an additional tall metal spiral support is attached to the interior (also removable).
