Hand painted in Occupied Japan Lacquerware Metal Base Floral Box

Measures: 4” x 2.5” x 1.5” Beautifully and delicately painted flowers with some abalone shell inlay. Overall good vintage condition but there is a little wear in the top right hand corner. A little scratching on the bottom most abalone flower and a couple of chips to the interior lacquer with a scrap on the bottom. The last two issues cannot be seen when box is sitting closed. Marked 36 on the inside.
