About the Item
A brilliant Kazaribako "Ornamented Box" made of glass by Japanese artist Kyohei Fujita (1921-2004) circa 1990s. The hand-blown green glass box features an unusual form in rectangular coffer slightly raised. Its thick glass walls are embedded with pink chucks of light-filtering crystal. The glass is further infused with crushed gold and silver leaves, shimmering under the light in mystery and glory. This specific ornamental pattern is relatively rare in the artist's repertoire and was called "Hagomoro" (Feathered Cloak). The rim of both the cover and the body was lined with sterling silver.
Etch signed on the base. It comes with an original tomobako box with Kanji inscription on the lid that read "Hand Blow, Ornamental Box, Hagomoro". Under the lid, it was signed with the artist's name and red seal.
Graduated from the Tokyo Academy of Arts, Department of Metal Crafts at nineteen. At twenty-six he entered the Iwata Glass Co. and resigned two years later to establish a career as an independent artist. In 1973, Fujita presented the “Japanese Iris” themed Liuli box (a type of glass). The box was made with a technically complicated decoration that results in the magical jewel-tones. From that point on, the name Kyohei Fujita became synonymous with “Liuli box”. They were the most ornate and magical Japanese boxes in the world.
Reference: For a box with Hagomoro motif, see page 26 of the catalog "Kyohei Fujita Museum of Glass".

Exquisite Japanese Lacquer Maki-e Hand Box Kobako Edo Period
Located in Atlanta, GA
An early Japanese lacquer Maki-e decorated kobako (small storage box) circa 18th century (Edo period). Based on its form and size, this kobako was possibly used as a Chabako to store the accoutrements for chado (tea ceremony). The lidded box is of rectangular form with bevel design on all edge that softens the appearance. The entire surface was densely covered with a background of nashiji. Elaborate Maki-e techniques were used on each side to showcase a distinct landscape or floral design within a cartouche panel. On the surface of the lid, a mountainous landscape rises from the edge of the water. The poetic composition is akin to a traditional ink scroll...
