By Rokkaku Shisui (1867-1950), signed Shisui
Japan, dated Taisho 8 (1919)

Published & Exhibited (the tray): Hiroshima Prefectural Art Museum (ed.), Kokuho wo tsukutta otoko: Rokkaku Shisui ten [The Exhibition: Rokkaku Shisui who created National Treasure objects], 18 November 2008-12 January 2009, p. 192, no. 61.

The tray, square with rounded corners, supported on four elegantly shaped legs connected by lobed stretchers. The main surface of the tray bearing a radiant nashiji ground, with the exterior sides decorated in gold togidashi maki-e, depicting flowerheads interspersed with scrolling foliage, while the interior sides are embellished in gold takamaki-e and inlaid with mother-of-pearl using the raden technique, illustrating pairs of ho-o flanking a tama pearl. The legs of the tray are exquisitely adorned with gold and silver takamaki-e, similarly inlaid with mother-of-pearl, to represent wisteria blossoms and other flowers, alongside bamboo leaves and additional foliage, accompanied by fluttering butterflies and birds. The underside of the tray finished in lustrous roiro lacquer and signed SHISUI.

The two okimono, naturalistically modeled as small quails, with their plumage finely carved and delicately sprinkled with gold of varied spacing and intensity over a smoothly polished dark-brown ground, accented with gold flakes. One quail has its head turned backward, looking over its shoulder, with a slightly open gilded beak, the interior of which is finely detailed in red lacquer. The undersides of both figures finished in vibrant nashiji.

Rokkaku Shisui (1867.1950), born in Hiroshima Prefecture, was a preeminent authority on Japanese lacquerware. After graduating in 1893 from the Tokyo Fine Arts School, he traveled extensively across Japan with the influential art historian Okakura Kakuzo, systematically surveying and documenting significant examples of early art. He later accompanied Okakura to the United States, where he was affiliated with the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and in 1907 he pursued further study in major European museums. In subsequent years he participated in excavations of Lelang Rakuro material in Korea, objects associated with the Han dynasty (206 BC-AD 220) and its colonial presence on the peninsula. In recognition of the rigor and enduring significance of his research on lacquerware, he was elected to the Japanese National Art Academy.
