【Auspicious Item】Hakone Yosegi-zaiku Wood Marquetry Picture Frame "First Fuji, Second Hawk, Third Eggplant" Traditional Craftsman Signed

This is a beautiful framed piece made using **Mokuzogan (wood inlay)**, a technique of Hakone Yosegi-Zaiku (traditional Hakone marquetry).
Instead of coloring, natural woods of different hues are meticulously cut out one by one and fitted together like a puzzle to create the image. This masterpiece showcases the artisan's skill, utilizing the wood grain itself to represent the texture of clouds and mountains.
