Custodia per sigillo in lacca, con tre livelli, con attacco in corda e netsuke

Lacquered Inro, Three-Case, with Cord and Netsuke

This is an ancient lacquered three-case inro. Its deep and unique lacquer surface features a complex interweaving of reddish-brown and black colors. The structure is divided into three sections, accompanied by a blue braided cord, a bluish-green jade bead, and a three-dimensional netsuke. No inscriptions or engravings by the artist have been found on the inro or netsuke. Due to its antiquity, there are signs of wear, scratches, stains, and lacquer damage resulting from age. Detailed information regarding the period, artist, place of manufacture, and the materials of the netsuke and jade bead remains unknown.
