About the Item
Our design philosophy honors this rich heritage while embracing the core tenets of Japanese minimalism: simplicity, mindfulness, and functionality. We have streamlined the complex, multi-layered structure of the traditional Inro to create a seamless, single-cavity design that speaks to contemporary needs. The focus shifts from overt embellishment to the subtle, inherent beauty and texture of the rare olive wood, echoing the wabi-sabi appreciation of imperfection and transience.
The case is constructed entirely from olive wood. The minimalist approach results in clean lines and a smooth, tactile finish, offering a sense of calm and sophistication in a world of visual noise. The natural variation in the wood grain means that each <009_N
is subtly unique.
Designed for modern life and crafted by traditional joinery techniques, this piece is a versatile accessory for the discerning individual. It provides a protective, elegant home for eyeglasses, sunglasses, or a selection of fine writing instruments, ensuring they are always close at hand and impeccably stored.

Fine Japanese Lacquered Inro by Yutokusai
Located in Atlanta, GA
A four-case lacquered Japanese inro by Yutokusai (Gyokkei), a lacquer artist active from 1845-1900 (end of Edo to Meiji period). The slightly round inro features a very intricate design with three unfolded fans on the front and two on the back: each reveals a vignette landscape scenery, likely real places in Japan. Using a combination of hiramaki-e and slight takamaki-e, the artist deftly created the pictures with fine details, rendering the inro as a miniature artwork...
