Japanese Gilt lacquered Meiji card case Bought this card case at a boot fair and was wondering if anyone could tell me who the artist is and if anyone can read the signature. The actual piece is really lovely and a steal at £8. If anyone can help I would be greatful
so Stunning !!!!
gorgeous mixed metal inro!
thank you for the comments and likes
Very nice!
entry marking ( homework) on ( hiramaki nashiji,)
this is not an inro , and this is not an hako ( box ) , this is an card case
we got it chinkin
hiramaki e-
taka-maki e
looks like a sort of hiramaki-e , it is not chinkin i am not an expert but in mine opinion this could be ( late) mejji or probably or early taisho ( panel design) i can,t read kanji so i don,t know the artist
imo it is not the most refined , but it does,not mattere because it always runs, so you did very well , congrats
suzuribako = an (box) Ryoshibako are different and got an different purpose
Thank you everyone for your help
