This three-tiered jubako bento box is an exemplary piece of Echizen lacquerware mastery. Golden gourds, intertwined with graceful leaves and vines, are brought to life through maki-e, hand-painted lacquer designs adorned with shimmering gold leaf.

A final coating of transparent lacquer over the maki-e then receives a meticulous polish to amplify the beautiful glossiness and color of the jubako. Enjoy the deepening luster of the natural lacquer over time, as you nurture this piece in your hands. 

The gourd, deeply respected in Japanese culture for symbolizing good health, and abundance, not only enhances the visual allure of this piece but also enriches it with profound cultural significance.

Ideally sized for two to three people, this jubako bento box makes a perfect addition to cozy gatherings or celebratory occasions, whether filled with delightful treats or a full meal. Complete the look by pairing it with the matching soup bowl for a truly cohesive presentation.
