介绍（中）	这款装饰华丽的黑漆八角形食品盒两侧各有嵌入式面板，镶嵌镀金金属网，周围环绕着精美的珍珠母贝设计，周围环绕着卷曲的牡丹叶和花朵。上部和下部的边缘还包含较小的嵌入式面板，上面装饰着镶嵌的珍珠母龙。盒子盖子的平顶上镶嵌着中国长寿之神寿老的设计，在八位道仙的上方乘坐仙鹤在云层中。凸起的刻面底座还装饰有镶嵌珍珠母贝牡丹卷轴，容器内部涂有红色漆面。在船脚的底部，一个现已被抹去的铭文可能表明了这件作品的起源，几乎可以肯定是由一家为琉球宫廷生产商品的工作室制作的。这件作品中的漆器和风格反映了中国和韩国装饰艺术的影响，尤其是镶嵌珍珠母的漆。
介绍（英）	This richly decorated black-lacquered octagonal food box features recessed panels on each of its sides, inset with gilded metal mesh and surrounded by intricately inlaid mother-of-pearl designs of scrolling peony leaves and flowers. The rims of both the upper and lower sections also contain smaller recessed panels ornamented with inlaid mother-of-pearl dragons. The flat top of the box’s cover is inlaid with a design of Shoulao, the Chinese God of Longevity, riding a crane among clouds above a group of eight Daoist Immortals. The raised, faceted base is also ornamented with inlaid mother-of-pearl peony scrolls, and the interior of the vessel is lacquered in red. An inscription, now obliterated, on the underside of the vessel’s foot, may have indicated the origins of the piece, which was almost certainly made by a studio producing wares for the Ryukyu court. The lacquer techniques and style seen in this piece reflect the influence of Chinese and Korean decorative arts, especially lacquers with mother-of-pearl inlay.
