Hand carved from a bolt of Kiri (paulownia) wood, prized among Japanese wood workers and craftsmen for its strength, light weight, and workability. Decorated on the sides with gold and silver makie lacquer in a lotus floral design. T is a copper insert, which is in excellent condition and has developed a beautiful patina.
