A nice black lacquered writing table 文台 (bundai), decorated throughout with finely inlaid mother-of-pearl 螺鈿 (raden). The upper surface is adorned with an elegant composition of plum branches 梅 (ume), their first blossoms beginning to open, rendered in shimmering mother-of-pearl against the deep black lacquer ground. The central panel is framed by a narrow border of scrolling foliage, also inlaid in mother-of-pearl. The lower tier is decorated with an open fan-shaped reserve containing a spray of chrysanthemums 菊 (kiku), similarly executed in mother-of-pearl. The sides are formed with openwork geometric railings, and the table is raised on four bracket feet. The corners and edges are fitted with finely chased brass mounts decorated with scrolling foliage. Signed underneath in red lacquer. Period: Japan – Meiji period (1868–1912). Dimensions: Height 22 cm, Width 54.6 cm, Depth 33.2 cm. In very good antique condition with traces of use consistent with age, including minor losses to the lacquer along parts of the underside and edges.
