An art panel finely created by Taya Shikki of Wajima lacquerware from Wajima, Ishikawa Prefecture. It features an owl, or “Fukurou” in Japanese, which is considered a symbol of both fortune and wisdom in Japan. The owl’s soulful eyes and life-like features have been intricately crafted through "Chinkin”, a decorative technique involving carving fine patterns into the surface of the lacquerware and filling the carved patterns with gold foil and pigment, resulting in a truly mesmerizing piece of art.
