Crafts – Lacquerware
In spite of being small, extreme minuteness is shown even in the details of thin modeled petals in takamakie and radial incision on the golden ground. Arabesque patterns are arranged along the edges. Transmitted as being designed modeled after a mandala of an ancient statue of Buddha.(「New Edition Grace, Beauty and Inqenuity-Masterpices of the Museum of Imperial Collections, Sannomaru Shozokan Vol.2」2003)
