Cabinet

Artist/maker unknown

Image 1 of 51 / 5

This cabinet may have been a "sample" piece, showing the various types of lacquer decorating techniques. One of the panels is signed "Soichi" (artist Shibayama Soichi). The piece has another indecipherable seal, perhaps that of the artist who worked the carved, red lacquer sections.
