A：Jubako with Chrysanthemum and Autumn Grass Maki-e Design

Origin: Japan

Size: 23 x 22 x 15 cm (Two tiers)

Material: Urushi lacquer on natural wood base

The two-tier jubako is a refined and practical vessel traditionally used for celebratory occasions and as a formal gift. Adorned with motifs of chrysanthemums and autumn grasses—cherished symbols of autumn in Japanese aesthetics—this piece expresses the grace of seasonal change and quiet elegance.

Maki-e, the traditional Japanese technique of sprinkling gold and silver powder onto lacquer, brings these motifs to life with exquisite detail. The delicate rendering of chrysanthemums and grasses reflects both the artisan’s mastery and a poetic appreciation for nature’s fleeting beauty.

This two-tier jubako, with its chrysanthemum and autumn grass design, is more than a functional container; it is a vessel of seasonal sentiment, embodying wishes for longevity, grace, and gratitude—an ideal centerpiece for moments of celebration.
