Frame measure 20.25" x 24.25" x 2" deep. Time is approximately 7.5" x 10.25".<br>Very unusual piece from a well listed artist.<br><br>BIOGRAPHY: Harris Strong was born in Waukesha, Wisconsin in 1920.  His aunt<br>owned a greeting card company, and that influenced him to become an artist.  He<br>also had a strong scientific bent, so he was meticulous about the "engineering"<br>of his tiles, which featured many innovations when competitors were creating<br>"pie plates," in his own dismissive works. <br><br>During the war, he was a cryptographer, working directly under General Douglas<br>MacArthur during World War II.  Afterward, he studied ceramics* and the<br>chemistry of ceramic glazes at North Carolina State University.  Then he worked<br>in Brooklyn, New York at Kelby Pottery.  <br><br>Later his own business really took off. He had showrooms in Chicago, New York<br>and Tokyo… he created a 30' long free-standing ceramic tile mural for the<br>Waldorf-Astoria in York City, which remains in place.  One friend says he was<br>the first to ever show art at a home furnishings show. <br><br>He loved, and sang Gilbert & Sullivan, collected stamps, and played bridge.  In<br>1970, Strong relocated to Trenton, Maine, but after a fire destroyed his glazes<br>developed over 20 years, he shifted his focus to prints, serigraphs*, woodcuts*,<br>etchings*, engravings*, collage* and paintings. <br><br>Strong died in 2006.

Antique Japanese Black-Lacquer Suzuribako (Writing Box) and Cover, late Meiji or early Taisho Period. Amazing item in original box. Some wear to lacquer but overall clean in good condition. Outer box measures 8.75" x 6". Suzuri-bako (硯箱; "inkstone box") are a type of Japanese writing box. The boxes are traditionally made of lacquered wood and are used to hold writing implements. Historically, the boxes were associated with calligraphy, and as such they were made using high-quality materials designed to safeguard porcelain inkstones (suzuri) from damage. History The first suzuri-bako were developed in 9th-century Japan. At the time, calligraphy was an integral part of Japanese society. In order for a writer to produce a high-quality calligraphy script, a set of precise tools was needed. The most important of these tools was the inkstone, which was required to hold and transfer ink onto a writer's brush. Ink sticks, water droppers, and a small knife were also part of a calligrapher's set. Suzuri-bako were designed to ensure that the various tools a calligrapher needed were properly organized and protected. Due to the insoluble nature of resin-based lacquer, the contents of the writing box were relatively safe from moisture.[3] Inside of the square or rectangular boxes rested a number of different trays and holders, the layout of which differed from period to period.[2] Early boxes were large enough to accommodate both the writer's implements and papers, while later boxes only housed tools. A second type of box, the ryōshibako, were used in later periods to house completed papers. Suzuri-bako became more elaborate as over time. While early period boxes are often decorated with solid red lacquer, more modern boxes are decorated in any number of ways. From the Muromachi period onward, many writing boxes have been decorated with images from Japan's great works of literature. Kōdaiji Temple in Kyoto became associated with a style of Suzuri-bako decoration that featured asymmetrical patterns and autumn grasses. In terms of lacquerware, black, brown, and gold are the most common colors seen in more modern suzuri-bako. During the Edo period many dowries included a suzuri-bako. Advancements in technology and manufacturing processes during the Meiji period resulted in a development of a number of new box shapes and sizes. The craft declined after the wide scale replacement of calligraphy, though the boxes are still produced in small numbers.

Antique Japanese Taisho Period Mixed Metals box. 2 3/8" wide x 1.75" deep x 1 1/8" tall with no issues, amazing work of art. First quarter of 20th century, Allie monogram in interior. Fujii Yoshitoyo was born in 1868 in Kyoto, Japan. Some sources write "Yoshitoyo" as "Biho" or "Miho", as 美豊 can be read in several ways. In addition, Fujii's first name can be written either as 美豊 or 美豐, since 豊 kanji is the simplified form of 豐. Fujii's family is known as early as 17th century and for four generations has enjoyed renown as the producer of inlaid work of first rank. Early in life, Yoshitoyo trained himself in this art, which led him to perceive the fact that there was ample room for further improvements and developments. Long experience and careful study gave him the skill and knowledge by which he could perfect the art, but Kyoto in those days was quite conservative, so that it was practically impossible for him to carry into practice the results of his investigation. He left home and came to Tokyo, the centre of learning, where he devoted himself to the art for a number of years, and finally succeeded in introducing valuable improvements. In 1902, at the age of 35, Fujii obtained his first patent from the Imperial Government. In 1909 he was granted his second patent. His damascene work, being made mostly from designs drawn by Prof. Bisei Unno of the Tokyo Fine Art School, well met the taste and requirements of the time.
