About the Item
This Meiji-period lacquer tray represents the mastery of Japanese craftsmen in the art of lacquer work. Precious materials are precisely inlaid in the lacquer base, creating a highly illusionistic three-dimensional effect. Gold lacquer borders the intricately laid design, which features a charming maki-e motif of scattered cards executed in mother-of-pearl, gold and other natural materials. The deep black background provides the perfect backdrop.
The creation of a lacquer tray such as this would have been an incredibly time-consuming process; the art form is considered among the most labor-intensive in the world and requires an exceptional level of finesse. Intricately detailed lacquer trays such as this reveal the mastery of their maker.
The tray comes set in its original box.
