This 19th-century design by Kubo Shunman, a noted Japanese artist of the Edo period, showcases a intricate pattern of stylized flowers, butterflies, and insects, possibly intended for leather or Netsuke, small decorative toggles. The use of vibrant colors like red, blue, and green contrasts against the black background. The design is typical of Shunman's work, known for its delicate and detailed motifs. The design's intricate detail and sophisticated color palette hint at the refined taste of the Edo era.
