| Suzuribako | ||||||||||
| Suzuribakos are traditional Japanese writing boxes, used for calligraphy. They typically consist of a rectangular or square box with multiple compartments designed to hold writing implements such as brushes, ink sticks, ink stones, and sometimes paper. They are often elaborate works of art in themselves, featuring intricate designs or decorations. Suzuribakos are considered both functional and decorative items in Japanese culture. They are commonly made from materials such as lacquered wood, metal, or ceramic, and they are used by calligraphers and artists to store and organise their tools while practising or creating their art. They are said to have originated in China, and were imported to Japan in the 10th century. | ||||||||||
