Description

This natsume is a large tea caddy traditionally used for serving usucha, or thin tea. Crafted from mizume (Japanese cherry birch)—a fine-grained natural wood—it is meticulously finished with layers of urushi lacquer from the base coat to the final polish. Since the wooden foundation is shaped by hand from start to finish, completion requires years of meticulous work.

The design depicted here is the mubyo, or "six gourds" motif. In Japan, six gourds have long been cherished as a visual pun for mubyo sokusai—a wish for "a life free from illness." As such, it is celebrated as an auspicious symbol of health and longevity. Complementing this is the karakusa (arabesque) pattern, its flowing vines representing vitality and prosperity. This motif is deeply rooted in Japanese decorative arts and has been widely used in tea utensils through the centuries.

Each gourd is painted entirely by hand in vivid hues. The bold composition makes striking use of open space, setting the richly colored forms against the glossy black lacquer for a contrast that feels both dynamic and harmonious.

The rounded body rests comfortably in the hand, with a pleasing lightness that makes it easy to handle. Its lid closes with precision, adding to its sense of refinement and usability. Slightly larger in scale, the piece highlights the lustrous depth of the lacquer, giving it a strong presence. Adorned with auspicious motifs yet free of seasonal limitation, it is a work that resonates just as naturally in a contemporary tea setting as it does within the timeless traditions of Japanese tea culture.
