Box with Design of Pine, Bamboo, and Cherry Blossom. Culture: Japan. Dimensions: H. 2 1/8 in. (5.4 cm); W. 2 3/4 in. (7 cm); D. 2 1/8 in. (5.4 cm). Date: 19th century. This covered box, part of a wedding trousseau, comprised of thirty-one pieces, represents late Edo-period maki-e (decoration in gold and/or silver sprinkled powder) art at its finest. The Shimazu family, lords of Satsuma in Kyushu, ordered this traditional trousseau most likely for Taka-hime, who was married to Matsudaira Sadakazu, lord of Kuwana (Ise Province), around 1830. The items of the wedding set are decorated with various auspicious motifs. The evergreen pine represents longevity and also symbolizes renewal. The fast-growing, springy, but at the same time very strong and enduring bamboo also stands for longevity and represents endurance and strength. The plum blossoms are the first flowers of spring, representing the renewal of nature. The combination of the "Three Friends of Winter"--originating from China--is associated with celebration, and considered to be an auspicious symbol. Cherry blossoms, admired in Japan for their subtle color and the fact that they fall at the peak of their beauty, also have auspicious connotations. The combination of the pine, bamboo, and cherry motifs (reflecting more of the Japanese aesthetic than the Chinese) is very rare. The explanation for the unusual matching might be related to the Matsudaira family crest, which is a stylized plum flower in a circle. The medicine chest and the medicine box show a different pattern, chrysanthemums beside a river, which refers to the legend of the Chrysanthemum boy, Kikujidou, symbolizing the achievement of immortality by drinking chrysanthemum dewdrops. This wedding set can be divided into four groups according to iconography, with several subgroups according to function. All of the groups include decoration executed in gold and silver maki-e on a pear-skin background, and all have the designs of the two family crests. T
