This vintage Japanese makeup compact features the delicate and historical Art of Chokin. Introduced in the 6th century, this technique was originally used to decorate shrines, temples, and later samurai armor, swords, and helmets.
The compact showcases the ancient art of etching copper and gilding with gold and silver, creating a stunning visual of a traditional Japanese pagoda against the backdrop of Mount Fuji. Made exclusively in Japan, this elegant piece remains unused, with its original components intact, making it a perfect example of craftsmanship and cultural artistry.
