Description

Vintage Japanese Lacquered Serving Bowl, 1970s, Showa Era (SKU 25D-308-4)

Showa-era lacquer bowl with elegant maki-e style decoration

This vintage Japanese lacquer ware bowl presents a beautiful contrast of glossy black urushi and refined red-and-gold ornament. The wide, rounded form and richly polished interior give it a graceful presence, while the decorative banding and floral motifs add a distinctly Japanese character.

It is accompanied by its wooden tomobako, bearing hand-written inscription, which enhances its collectible appeal. A fine example of Showa-period craftsmanship, this piece works well as both a functional serving bowl and a decorative display object.

As part of our mission to preserve and share Japanese craftsmanship, we offer antiques that were made not just to be admired, but to be used. These pieces were crafted for everyday life, and we honor their purpose by ensuring they can continue to be enjoyed and lived with today.

We use professional studio lighting to highlight the natural character of the wood. As a result, the tone may appear slightly warmer than under natural daylight.

All vintage and antique items are sold as-is. Each piece may exhibit signs of age, including scratches, wear, or minor imperfections. These are not considered defects but natural evidence of the item’s authenticity and age.
