A Japanese four-case lacquer inro by a member of Kajikawa family circa 19th century (late Edo to early Meiji period).

It was masterfully decorated in gold and silver maki-e using a combination of techniques including takamakie, togidashi and kirigane as well as aogai (abalone shell) inlays. The stream was set between the slightly elevated banks, adding to this piece a already strong three-dimensional composition. The interior was decorated in gold nashiji.
