On deep black lacquer, Takeuchi Kosai has placed persimmons — kaki — in gold and warm vermillion, with leaves that move between amber and red-brown. The composition is unhurried: branches extend diagonally, fruit hangs at its own weight, leaves turn in place. The design reads as observation, not arrangement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🔹 [ BASIC DETAILS ]\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: diameter 6.5 cm, height 7 cm. Body in excellent condition.

The deep black ground — hon-kuro-nuri — gives each element space to exist without competition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🔹 [ DEEP-DIVE COMMENTARY ]\u003cbr\u003eOpen the piece and the interior is silver-ground lacquer. This is a premium specification, less common than the standard red interior, and it reads as the craftsman's private choice — a detail most users will encounter alone. The contrast between the black exterior, the warm gold design, and the cool silver within is considered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🔹 [ 日本語解説 ]\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【竹内幸斎作 柿蒔絵 中棗 内銀地】\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e柿蒔絵中棗・内銀地。黒地に柿の実と枝を金・朱の色蒔絵で表現。内部は銀地（高級仕様）。箱の蓋なし。本体の状態は良好。内銀地は付加価値大。竹内幸斎は京都の蒔絵師で、繊細な植物文様を得意とする\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Modern Zen Archiveが厳選した茶道具コレクションの一品です。\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":61771477320050,"sku":"260413_a_2735","price":970.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/5680\/3698\/files\/m18592279557_1.jpg?v=1776043197","url":"https:\/\/checkout.themodernzenarchive.com\/products\/takeuchi-kosai-kaki-maki-e-natsume-persimmon-design-in-gold-and-vermillion-on-black-silver-interior-box-without-lid","provider":"The Modern Zen Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
