A Japanese Meiji Period Blue and White Porcelain 5-Tier Presentation Box
About the Item
An Incredible and Quite Large Japanese Meiji Period Blue and White Porcelain Five-Tier Presentation Box and Cover. This magnificent piece was most probably made for a nobleman to present an array of gifts to someone. Japanese culture demands high respect for one another and gifts were usually presented in pieces as amazing as the gifts themselves.
This piece is particularly special in that it consists of four large base pieces for storage and one gorgeous lid which ties the entire piece together. The box consists of four sides each of which has a different subject hand-painted on it in a gorgeous blue color. One side of the box shows an elderly couple standing under a tree by a flowing waterway, the next side shows the same waterway, just downstream with a branch hanging down, the third side shows a flowing river with a male and female Japanese Red Crowned Crane eating by the water, the final scene is a male and female box turtle resting on a rock underneath a tree branch with a flowing stream underneath them. Each cartouche is hand-painted, while the rest of the box is beautifully decorated with blue and white flowing designs and Japanese inspired decoration. The lid of the box is complete with a gorgeous sun shinning in the morning behind the trees. The sections on the box rest on four gorgeously hand-painted blue and white feet.
