Japanese Mixed Metals Box by Fujii Yoshitoyo

Jacksons Antique are pleased to offer this Japanese Mixed Metals Box by Fujii Yoshitoyo.

This substantial rectangular box, raised upon shaped feet, is beautifully worked upon a black ground with extensive decoration in gold and silver. Each panel presents dynamic Japanese landscapes depicting pagodas, boats, traditional buildings, mountains, and varied foliage, offering a panoramic display of Meiji-period culture. The interior lid and base reveal further decoration, finely engraved with wisteria, a bird, ducks, and iris flowers, continuing the naturalistic themes across the piece. The underside is signed with the workshop mark of Fujii Yoshitoyo, confirming its esteemed origin.

Dating to the Meiji Period (1868–1912), circa 1895, this box showcases the high level of skill and detail associated with the celebrated workshops of the era. The combination of intricate landscapes, engraved interiors, and the use of mixed metals makes it a striking and impressive collector’s piece.
