- Lot Description
East Asia, Japan, Meiji period, ca. early 20th century CE. This is a gorgeous pair of Negoro lacquerware pieces: a vintage wooden box and matching tray. The box rests on three legs with a removable lid that fits flush over the annular rim and the interior of the lid is painted with gold maki-e style pine branches on top of the black lacquer. The exterior is also painted with a black lacquer then covered in a russet red - with time and use, the red wears away and creates a mottled surface which is valued for its aesthetic beauty as well as a marker of its age. The wooden tray is a single piece of wood bearing a slanted rim with Negoro lacquer on the inner lip and black lacquer on the exterior base. Negoro lacquerware was developed in the Negoro-ji temple during the 14th century, and this technique has endured for generations since the attractive coloration only amplifies with age! Size (box): 8.25" Diameter x 4" H (21 cm x 10.2 cm); (tray): 14.125" Diameter x 1.25" H (35.9 cm x 3.2 cm)
Provenance: private Hawaii, USA collection; ex-M. Kobiashi collection, Hawaii, USA, 1960 to 2000
