This is a lovely late 19th century Imperial Japan, Gold lacquer and Shibayama cards case.

Other lacquered and gilded Flora includes Valerian and bush Clover, further decorated with semi precious stones and Paradise birds. The reverse of the card case depicts a scene of two Manchurian cranes stood beneath stems of the trees. Overall this is a stunning gorgeous example of a Shibayama work and ivory cards case and would enhance any serious Japanese, or indeed card case collection. This case retain the original patina and will be also a great addition for your Bijouterie cabinet.
Shibayama
The art form known as Shibayama is named after the Shibayama area of present-day Chiba prefecture. The Shibayama technique was created by Ōnoki Senzō, an Edo haberdasher who lived during the An’ei era (1772–1781). His style of inlaying became so popular that he named works done with the inlay technique after his hometown of Shibayama and later also adopted this name as his surname. Shibayama refers to the intricate carving and minute encrustation of various materials on to a ground material. The inlay typically consists of mother-of-pearl, ivory, tortoiseshell and coral, the combination creating a delightful contrast of colors and textures.
Meiji period
Is an era of Japanese history that extended from October 23, 1868 to July 30, 1912.The Meiji era was the first half of the Empire of Japan, when the Japanese people moved from being an isolated feudal society at risk of colonization by Western powers to the new paradigm of a modern, industrialized nation state and emergent great power, influenced by Western scientific, technological, philosophical, political, legal, and aesthetic ideas. As a result of such wholesale adoption of radically different ideas, the changes to Japan were profound, and affected its social structure, internal politics, economy, military, and foreign relations. The period corresponded to the reign of Emperor Meiji. It was preceded by the Keiō era and was succeeded by the Taishō era, upon the accession of Emperor Taishō.
