Antique Japanese Black Lacquer Temple Offering Table – Momoyama Period (16th Century)
A rare and exquisite Japanese temple offering table from the Momoyama period (16th century), crafted with black lacquer and adorned with intricate gold maki-e decoration. This ceremonial table reflects the refined artistry and opulence of the era, where lacquerware was elevated to its highest form through meticulous craftsmanship and elaborate designs.
The table is further embellished with gilded copper metalwork, adding a striking contrast to the deep black lacquer while enhancing its sense of prestige and sacred significance. The harmonious combination of lacquer, gold, and metalwork exemplifies the luxurious yet restrained aesthetics associated with Buddhist temple furnishings of the Momoyama period.
