i'd love it if someone could translate the Japanese on this box! i think it might have been for a very special liqueur bottle from the 50s or 60s. i've seen pics of some amazing ones from Japan!

This is a tomobako and it is more likely that a n artisan piece of ceramic came in it.

Yes, you will need someone to translate to find out what was in the box and by whom.
thank you racer!! that's good info!
i got a partial translation - 'Slender Bizen Ware'. so it held a slender bison! not many of them around!
