Fine Edo Kiriko craftsmanship: this three-tier box uses the traditional Edo Kiriko cut-glass technique, showing the outstanding skill of its makers. The cutting is finely worked, the lines clear and symmetrical, and the blue glass catches the light with an appealing brilliance.
Auspicious motifs: the cranes and tortoises on the body of the box are traditional Japanese auspicious motifs, symbolizing long life and happiness. The crane stands for health and blessing, the tortoise for longevity and peace. This symbolism makes the three-tier box especially suitable as a gift or keepsake.
High-quality glass: the glass of this three-tier box is highly transparent, thick and durable. Fired at high temperature and polished by hand, it shows a deep amber-blue that is rich and restrained.
Versatile design: the three-tier box has a multi-layered structure, so it can serve as a storage box, hold small objects or be used as a display vessel, which adds to its practicality. It is equally suitable as a piece of home decoration or for use at a tea gathering or ceremony.
With tomobako: the piece comes with a good-quality wooden tomobako (original signed box). The box is finely made, and it not only protects the three-tier box but also sets it off when displayed, adding to the overall pleasure of viewing.
