Chrysanthemum Makie Cufflinks

A chrysanthemum is depicted on the black-lipped mother-of-pearl using hirameki (a technique where a design is drawn with lacquer, gold or silver powder is sprinkled on before the lacquer dries, and then, after drying, lacquer is applied again to the design and polished to a finish).

This tasteful masterpiece depicts a chrysanthemum glowing golden in the moonlight, set against the black-lipped mother-of-pearl that subtly透けるs like a dark night.

How about giving this as a gift to someone who loves Japan or to someone from abroad?
