Writing box
A bouquet of flowering autumn plants adorns the lid of this box for writing implements, in which a brush and inkstone would have been stored. Japanese lacquerware is decorated with autumnal motifs remarkably often. One explanation may be that autumn in Japan is a pleasant season, when the oppressive heat of summer is replaced by fine, clear weather.
