This vintage Japanese lacquerware box dates to the early-to-mid 20th century and features finely executed maki-e decoration depicting a crane in flight above stylized pine trees. Rendered in gold on a glossy black lacquer ground, the imagery reflects traditional Japanese symbolism, with the crane representing longevity and good fortune.
The interior is finished in a rich red lacquer, providing a striking contrast to the exterior decoration. The box is rectangular in form with clean lines and balanced proportions, making it both functional and highly decorative.
Originally intended for storage of personal items, documents, or textiles, this piece now serves beautifully as a decorative box, jewelry storage, or sculptural accent for shelves, consoles, or desks.
