An exquisite set of magemono lacquered basins decorated outside in tame-nuri with golden waves crashing about outside, the interior mirror black with shrimp scooting among waterplants enclosed in the original kiri-wood box dating from the Meiji to Taisho periods (late 19th to early 20th century). Magemono is made by taking a very thin slice of wood and bending it to create a specific, ordinarily cylindrical shape. Each is roughly 11.5 cm (4-1/2 inches) diameter, 10.5 cm (4 inches) tall and in excellent condition.
