Subject:Please help translating Tomobako
Posted By: Martin V. Sun, Jan 10, 2021 IP: 2a01:cb05:8886:f400:
Hello everyone,

I was wondering if anyone would be so kind as to help me translate this box. There seems to be a label which has been stuck over the original painted text, although the lacquer bento set seems to fit in just fine?

Any thoughts would be welcome.

Thank you for your time and effort.

Inscription on label,

Yuzan-yō kuronuri makie (kōyō moyō)
Black lacquerwork with autumn leaves pattern for picknick

Because of this label the original inscription is hidden.

With regards,
