This Writer's Box, made by renowned Japanese potter Ogata Kenzan (1663-1743), is a beautiful example of *Kenzan ware* and dates from the Edo period (1615-1868). The box, crafted from earthenware, is decorated with a striking design of a crane in flight, executed in a vibrant palette of green, brown, and gold. The box's interior features a tray that is perfect for storing writing implements, highlighting the functional nature of *Kenzan ware* and its connection to daily life.
