1936.20.0341 :: ask

Object description

Träask lackerad i brunt med dekor i guld och rött föreställande en femkload drake bland lågor och moln. Insidan av locket är klädd med gult silke liksom botten, som på det gula silket har en tryckt drake i samma utförande som på lockets översida. Lacken är något sprucken.

Enligt kataloguppgift är asken överdragen med ett tjockt lager kalkmassa. Kejserlig gåva?

Den femkloade draken tyder på att asken tillverkats för kejsaren, liksom det kejserliga gula silket på askens insida./CR

Important to know about the information in the online collection database

Users of the database are warned that some records may include language or terminology dating from the 19th and 20th centuries which depicted people in ways that are obsolete and/or offensive. We are conscious that the inclusion of such terminology is problematic. As an institution, we have chosen to include this historic information in our database because it is part of the documentation for the object, photograph, or archival item. Where known, objects associated with, or photographs depicting, ritual or ceremonial activity have been hidden in the publicly accessible database as there may be restrictions relating to the age, gender, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. The database may also include the names of deceased persons, which could cause sadness or distress, particularly to relatives of these people.
