Ougi (Japanese Lacquer Boxes) Pencil Case

In the Maki-e tradition, lacquerware is created by painting tree sap onto treasured objects and sprinkling them with metallic powder, such as gold, silver or copper, to create luxurious designs. Showcasing foliage and a turtle family, this Paperblanks Ougi pencil case features the image of an antique 19th-century Japanese lacquer box selected from a private collection in Kyoto. See more
