A composed arrangement referencing the vessel and branch motif found in traditional domestic interiors. The imagery is restrained within the soban framework, allowing structure to remain primary. Mother-of-pearl is placed with measured density, creating controlled areas of reflection against the lacquered ground. The composition balances vertical movement with contained geometry, maintaining quiet tension between tradition and reduction. Handcrafted in small batches. Subtle surface variation is inherent to the process.
Dimensions: 50 × 38 × 5.5(height) cm
