Vintage Japanese Decorative Summer Display w/Box
This is a vintage Japanese home decoration featuring a summertime aesthetic. It features a bamboo screen, a small cicada, and even a cicada noise for a fully immersive experience. A black lacquered wooden frame and small handcrafted wooden cicada clings hold up the bamboo screen. There is a small built-in vase for a silk bellflower. A small pull-out panel on the side hides a 9V battery (not included), and a black switch on the back side turns the cicada sound on and off.
According to a small pamphlet included inside the box, this item was created to give even city dwellers a piece of nature.
