About the Item
INLAID WITH A GOLD AND SILVER DEER
From our Japanese collection we are pleased to offer this Japanese Damascene Box by Ashizuki. The Japanese Box of rectangular shape raised upon four shaped feet features a matt black ground worked beautifully with gold and silver nunome zogan. To the lid a deer looks up with a silver snout amongst inlaid gold foliage. To each long side birds are found playing around the mouth of a silver topped Mount Fuji while the two shorter sides are elegantly finished with a plain black ground. The base of the Japanese Box is signed with the stylised character marks for Ashizuki. Japanese Damascene Box by Ashizuki dates to the Japanese Meiji period (1868-1912).
NUNOME ZOGAN (布目象嵌)
literally translates as “cloth inlay,”. It consists of first preparing a flat surface with crosshatched lines using a fine chisel to create a series of lines on the entire surface and in several directions to give it a texture that resembles woven cloth.

Japanese Lacquered Tebako 'Box'
Located in PARIS, FR
Tebako box with three compartments in golden and nashi-ji lacquer, decorated with golden, red, and kirigane lacquer, golden persimmon tree leaves, among rocks. The compartments are of increasing size from the top. The decoration is in continuity.
Persimmon has been cultivated in southern China for more than 2500 years and is believed to have been introduced to Japan in the 8th century. The veneer is a tree with very hard wood, similar to ebony. According to a legend, one specimen survived the atomic bombing of Nagasaki on August 9, 1945, close to the epicenter. It is therefore in Japan a symbol of strength and longevity. It is also the national fruit of the country. It is eaten as a traditional dish during New Year's Day celebrations.
Tebako literally means "portable box...
