Black lacquer & gold leaf etched wood, would most likely be Japanese. Hard to tell from photos. The shade looks like mount fuji volcano and the shrine to the Shinto goddess.
People consider the mountain to be sacred, being named after Buddhist fire goddess Fuchi. At the summit sits a shrine to the Shinto goddess Senjen-Sama. Buddhists believe it is a gateway into another world.
