About the Item
Dimensions: 23 × 23 × 26 cm
Material: Black lacquer with maki-e decoration
Box: Signed tomobako (original wooden box)
A refined example of late Meiji craftsmanship, this lacquer hibachi (traditional Japanese brazier) embodies the quiet elegance and poetic symbolism of classical Japan. Executed in deep black lacquer and adorned with delicate maki-e (gold and silver sprinkled designs), the surface is encircled by plants representing the four seasons—each rendered with subtle grace and natural movement.
This cyclical motif reflects the Japanese aesthetic of mujo—the transience of life and beauty’s impermanence—inviting contemplation and serenity. Originally used as a brazier, today it serves beautifully as an accent piece, flower vessel, or objet d’art, resonating with timeless refinement.
The hibachi comes in its signed wooden box, attesting to its authenticity and care of preservation. A work of quiet luxury and poetic depth, it will harmonize effortlessly within both traditional and contemporary interiors.
