Manual Elegance
In Japan, the widespread use of shadow in all forms of art, from folding screens to representational painting, is clear evidence ofthe appreciation that the Japanese have for the nuances of light and dark. This is perhaps one reason for the long tradition oflacquerware in Japan. The beauty of the lacquer is brought out by the shadow and the subtle variations of light and shadow revealthe depth of its black gloss. When light hits the lacquer, other hidden colors appear. The delicate hand-painted maki-e on the hourmarks of SBGW262 serve perfectly to prove the point.
