A traditional Japanese lacquered tiered bento box with a maki-e (gold lacquer) design of pine trees. Purpose: Used for packing Osechi Ryori (New Year's dishes) for New Year's Day or for serving dishes at celebratory occasions. Features: The vibrant red surface is adorned with auspicious pine tree patterns in a festive manner. Material: Many traditional tiered bento boxes are made by layering lacquer over natural wood, making them durable and long-lasting. I believe it is in relatively good condition. There are some scratches here and there. Please check the photos before purchasing. Only purchase if you understand that this is a used item. We would appreciate it if you could contact us about initial defects before leaving a review. Thank you for looking.
