Four seasons. One artist's sustained attention to time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNakamura Kosai assembled this shiki (four-seasons) natsume set as a complete cycle — each lacquer body holding its own seasonal intelligence. The autumn piece carries chrysanthemum and pampas grass in gold maki-e against deep black. Summer arrives in gold lattice over warm beige, light filtering through a formal grid. The dark brown caddy holds autumn grasses with berries, the harvest at its edge. The red and black piece bears a gold crane — the New Year's threshold, stillness before movement begins again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach caddy: approximately H6.7–6.9 cm, D6.5–6.7 cm. Forms consistent across the set; motifs distinct.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo use one is to acknowledge where in the year you stand. To own the set is to hold the whole turning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very good. Minor wear consistent with age and careful use. All four pieces with original tomobako and tomobune.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🔹 [ SHIPPING \u0026amp; PACKAGING ]\u003cbr\u003e• Dispatch: Within 1-6 business days\u003cbr\u003e• Carrier: Japan Post EMS \/ UPS (with tracking)\u003cbr\u003e• Packaging: Carefully wrapped with protective materials","brand":"The Modern Zen Archive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":61638299877746,"sku":"260304_a_2313","price":2465.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/5680\/3698\/files\/m39379296605_1.jpg?v=1772713992","url":"https:\/\/checkout.themodernzenarchive.com\/products\/set-of-4-seasonal-natsume-by-nakamura-kosai-shiki-natsume-maki-e-tea-caddies-tomobako","provider":"The Modern Zen Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
