Iron-cut gold "Full Load Return" cigarette box
This Japanese Meiji-era iron cigarette case, depicting a ship returning laden with its cargo, is rectangular with rounded corners and crafted using the traditional Japanese iron inlay technique. The design, featuring a sailing ship laden with its catch, symbolizes good fortune. The interplay of gold and silver creates a luxurious and opulent effect. Iron inlay, also known as "tetsukin," is a special technique that creates gold patterns on iron. First, horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines are chiseled into the iron base. Then, gold foil is hammered into these lines, embedding the gold foil into the iron base with a smooth surface. The gold and silver are beautiful, while the iron base is solid and stable; the two colors complement each other, creating a magnificent and exquisite effect.
Japanese metalwork, particularly ironwork, is world-renowned for its exquisite carving and inlay techniques.
