FAQs

Meiji period Japanese lacquerware refers to items crafted between 1868 and 1912, a time when traditional urushi lacquer techniques reached exceptional levels of fine detail and artistic expression for both domestic and export markets.

These boxes are traditionally constructed from a wooden base coated with multiple layers of sap from the urushi tree, often decorated with gold and silver dust using the maki-e technique.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-applied urushi with subtle natural variations, fine metal powder detailing, and traditional joinery or aged patination on the interior surfaces consistent with historical production methods.

An antique lacquer box can be placed on a surface such as a coffee table or sideboard to add a contrasting texture, a dark colour accent, and a focal point of traditional craftsmanship.

Antique lacquer should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent fading or drying, and cleaned only with a soft, dry microfibre cloth without harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.
