A single natsume, where a ivy motif quietly breathes within the lustrous black lacquer. This is an ivy maki-e natsume by Saito Sōho. Ivy leaves, depicted in red, gold, and green, are scattered across the deep black lacquer, creating a finish that exudes a subdued elegance. Ivy has long been a motif symbolizing vitality and prosperity. While understated, it possesses a definite presence, adding a subtle touch of the season and refinement to the tea ceremony. This piece is recommended not only for those who practice tea ceremony but also for those seeking maki-e or lacquerware by a specific artist. Comes with a tomobako (matching wooden box). There is no noticeable sign of use, and it appears to be in generally good condition. We ask that those who understand that this is a pre-owned item purchase it. [Size] Mouth diameter: approx. 6cm Lid diameter: approx. 7cm Height: approx. 6.5cm This item is one of a series of seasonal motif natsume circulated by the same artist. Enjoying it alongside other seasonal motifs would also be delightful.
