Hida Shunkei vase in lacquered wood imitating ceramics.
Hida shunkei is a transparent lacquer technique applied to wood (often hinoki or katsura).
With this technique, the artist seeks to highlight the natural grain of the wood, which he enhances with a fine lacquer in amber, honey or golden red tones.
A light, pure style... in some cases imitating the look of ceramics. A sober aesthetic appreciated by ikebana enthusiasts...
Perfect condition.
