This rectangular tray is crafted from hinoki cypress and finished in the warm golden-amber tones of Hida Shunkei lacquerware. Long lines run across its broad surface, drawing the eye along the length of the tray and emphasizing its clean, horizontal form.
Multiple coats of transparent suki-urushi lacquer reveal the natural grain beneath the glossy surface. The wood is carefully bent to shape the outer frame, while the rim is constructed in two layers. This double-rim structure creates a distinctive stepped edge, adding definition to the tray’s rectangular profile.
Generously sized, it offers ample space for serving meals and refreshments or entertaining guests, and can also be used to display decorative objects.
