Japanese Edo Period 4 case lacquer inro. Depiction of the god of good fortune and longevity Fukurokuju, sitting on a crane. A young boy running on the reverse. Done in the Fundame technique.
Interior of the cases in nashijii. The face and hands of both figures perhaps done in silver. Small part of the crane's wing missing as well as one of the hands of the boy. Otherwise good condition for such an old piece.
