inrō // container forms
Consisting of a stack of tiny, nested boxes, inrō were most commonly used to carrryidentity seals
and medicine. The stack of boxes is held together by a cord that is
laced through cord runners down one side, under the bottom, and up the
opposite side. The ends of the cord are secured to a netsuke, a kind of toggle that is passed between the sash and pants and then hooked over the top of the sash to suspend the inrō. An ojime,
or bead, is provided on the cords between the inrō and netsuke to hold
the boxes together. This bead is slid down the two suspension cords to
the top of the inrō to hold the stack together while the inrō is worn,
and slid up to the netsuke when the boxes need to be unstacked to access
their contents. Inrō were made of a variety of materials, including
wood, ivory, bone, and lacquer. Lacquer was also used to decorate inro
made of other materials.
