Christie's lot essay on a similar piece: ''The Zohiko lineage dates from the time of the Kyoto lacquer craftsman Nishimura Munetada (1720-1773), who acquired the nickname "elephant boy" (Zohiko) for his lacquer image of the deity Fugen (Samantabhadra) on an elephant mount. This stand is possibly from the workshop in the periods of the seventh-generation Nishimura Hikobei. His nephew, the eighth generation, received the gold medal for his work at the Panama Pacific International Exposition of 1915.'' The quality of this antique late 19th century Japanese lacquer 'Moon shining through pine trees' sake cup stand is absolutely breathtaking.
