The panel verso is very unusual as it consists of three tied mother of pearl simulated Bamboos sticks tied to suit a floral display, the flowers are made up of the usual hardstones as well as cloisonné enamel , the outer border is decorated in fine Nashi ground lacquer , this large Inro is tied with its original silk cord and is held together with a carved lacquer Ojime bead, the interior houses an old collectors label .
