This is the Japanese lunch boxes. Traditionally, Osechi (a special kind of food for the new year) is served with this kind of lunch boxes called 'JYUBAKO' which are three-tiered or five-tiered boxes.
Family crest: This family crest which is printed on the top of boxes is called 'Ken-katabami' because it is mixed with weeds 'Katabami' and the swords 'Ken'. Katabami is weeds which has three single leaves with pretty little flowers.
