H17 1/2 x W20 cmC12814Tohru Matsuzaki, Faceted Box, 2014$ 3,640.00Matsuzaki contrasts the sharp edges of this octagonal box with curved walls that gently slope inward from the boxe’s opening to its base. Thick layers of lacquer give the box’s surface a smooth rippling texture. A layer of black lacquer is barely visible beneath the exterior red coating, a style of lacquerware dating to Japan’s Kamakura period (1185-1333).
