This elegant vintage Japanese Rantai Shikki (籃胎漆器) set originates from Kyushu and represents a distinctive regional lacquer tradition known for its woven bamboo core and deep, translucent lacquer finish. The set consists of one round serving tray and five matching small plates/coasters, all finished in a rich reddish-brown urushi lacquer. The subtle basket-weave pattern visible beneath the lacquer is characteristic of Rantai Shikki and gives each piece depth, warmth, and a refined handcrafted appearance. Perfect for tea or sake service, wagashi (Japanese sweets), or as a refined decorative set for collectors of Japanese lacquerware.
