Details

Finished in antique brass, recalling the elegance of traditional Japanese metalwork; delicate engravings adorn the lid, adding dimension and authenticity while keeping a clean, contemporary silhouette; inspired by Japanese craftsmanship and symbolism from the Meiji period. Historic provenance: based on a mid-19th-century incense box from Japan, crafted during the Meiji period (1868 to 1912), part of The Met collection, featuring intricately overlapped chrysanthemums and used to store incense.
