Estimated Shipping Widget will be displayed here!
This two-tiered Jubako Bento box is decorated with "Maki-e" on bamboo grass and lacquered with "Tame-nuri". "Maki-e" is a lacquerware decoration technique in which design is drawn in lacquer, over which gold, silver, or other metal powder is sprinkled while the lacquer is wet.
"Tame-nuri" is a lacquerware technique in which a middle coat of lacquer is applied and then polished with a coat of tame-nuri lacquer, so that the more time passes, the more transparent and vivid the base color becomes.
The evenly spaced lines are a characteristic decoration of Yamanaka lacquerware. This decorative method is called "suji-biki," in which fine lines are made parallel to the surface of the wood by applying a blade to the wood while the lathe is turning.
This is just the right size for two people. It can also be used as a gorgeous container for sweets in everyday use.
