A LACQUERED WOOD HIBACHI (BRAZIER)Japan, 19th century, Edo period (1615-1868)The wood ground finely decorated in hiramaki-e with a large prunus branch filled with blossoms opposite of further blossoms born on leafy stems. The hollow interior with a bronze liner.DIAMETER 32 cmCondition: Good condition with wear, expected age cracks, traces of insect activity, losses to hiramaki-e decorations, and small nicks. The copper liner with some malachite encrustations. The inset wood base lost.Provenance: German private collection.The hibachi (lit. fire bowl) is a traditional Japanese heating device. It is a brazier which is either round, cylindrical, or box-shaped, open-topped container, made from or lined with a heatproof material and designed to hold burning charcoal. It is believed hibachi date back to the Heian period. It is filled with incombustible ash, and charcoal sits in the center of the ash. To handle the charcoal, a pair of metal chopsticks called hibashi (lit. 'fire chopsticks') is used in a way similar to Western fire irons or tongs. Hibachi were used for heating, not for cooking. It heats by radiation, and is too weak to warm a whole room, often disappointing foreigners who expected such power. Sometimes, people placed a tetsubin (iron kettle) over the hibachi to boil water for tea. Later, by the 1900s, some cooking was also done over the hibachi.
