Black lacquer box decorated with butterflies and flowers in red, green and yellow lacquer. Detail in powdered gold lacquer and kirikane (small gold square.) Curiously there are only 2 elements in yellow lacquer, a butterfly and a flower. No signature.
Good condition, no restoration. Slight wear and tear for a 19th century lacquer.
I think that the drawer knobs have been replaced because they are simple and in copper alloy while the other mounts are in white metal which is probably silver.
Approximate dimensions: 35x20x20cm
