Japanese Lacquer Box with Kamon, 1950s

Elegant wooden box with a deep black lacquer exterior and a warm vermilion interior.

Dimensions: height 9 cm, width 23 cm, depth 21 cm.

The lid is centrally decorated with a gold family crest (kamon) of stylised leaves and blossom. Its simple square silhouette and softly rounded edges give the piece a timeless presence.

The lacquer has a rich gloss with light, age-appropriate wear.

A refined yet practical box for jewellery, writing tools, tea sweets, or small keepsakes—also lovely as a quiet centerpiece on a table or sideboard.
