■ Description A. Introduction Add a splash of vibrant tradition to your desk or table with this beautiful small Japanese lacquer tray. This piece is a fine example of "Japanese Carved Lacquer", featuring a high-relief design of grapes and vines. The deep vermilion red color, known as "Japan Red," makes it a striking piece of Asian craftsmanship.

B. Features & Cultural Context

  • Origin: Japan.

  • Design (Grapes): The tray features a dynamic carving of Grapes (Budo) and broad leaves. In Japanese art, grapes are auspicious symbols representing abundance, fertility, and a good harvest due to their many seeds and clustering fruit.

  • Technique (Tsuishu Style): This piece is crafted in the "Tsuishu" (Carved Red Lacquer) style. The wooden base is intricately carved first and then coated with thick layers of lacquer. This technique creates a sculptural 3D effect where you can see the depth of the carving.

  • Color: The vivid contrast between the glossy red surface and the darker recessed areas is a hallmark of traditional Japanese lacquerware.

C. Usage & Decor Ideas

  • Pen & Stationery Tray: The perfect size (21cm length) to hold luxury pens or glasses on a desk.

  • Tea Service: Use it to serve dry sweets (Higashi) during a casual tea time.

  • Jewelry/Key Tray: A sophisticated spot to place rings, watches, or keys in an entryway.

  • Interior Accent: The vivid red color makes it a striking display piece against dark wood furniture.

D. Size & Weight

  • Length: 21.2 cm / 8.34 in

  • Width: 12.3 cm / 4.84 in

  • Height: 1.6 cm / 0.63 in

  • Weight: 122 g / 0.27 lbs

E. Condition Condition: Vintage / Used This item is in good vintage condition.

  • Front: The carved lacquer surface is vibrant. The intricate grape carving is sharp and well-preserved.

  • Back: The black lacquer back shows visible scuffs, fine scratches, and signs of use/rubbing consistent with a vintage tray.

  • Overall: No major cracks or structural damage observed.

F. Conclusion This tray is a lovely example of Japanese wood carving and lacquer work. The bold grape design and the rich red color make it a delightful addition to any collection.
