Exquisite Japanese Lacquer Maki-e Hand Box Kobako Edo Period

Located in Atlanta, GA

An early Japanese lacquer Maki-e decorated kobako (small storage box) circa 18th century (Edo period).

Elaborate Maki-e techniques were used on each side to showcase a distinct landscape or floral design within a cartouche panel. On the surface of the lid, a mountainous landscape rises from the edge of the water. The poetic composition is akin to a traditional ink scroll...
