This is a wooden lacquerware flower stand featuring a mother-of-pearl inlaid butterfly motif, signed Kada. The signature Kada is located on the spot marked in red in the photo. Research indicates that around the mid-Meiji period, there was an artist named Nogita Hanabusa who specialized in colored inlay and mother-of-pearl. It is presumed that this is the same Kada. The surface of the stand depicts butterflies, with mother-of-pearl inlay on the rim, and a thick arabesque pattern below, the technique of which is unknown. Fading and scratches are visible on the black lacquer of the stand's surface. Please judge based on the photos. 41cm x 25cm, height approx. 15cm.
