Literally "hand box." Introduced from China as a comb box before the Heian period, they were popular with court women through the Muromachi period. The earliest boxes usually had a fitted inner tray with three small containers for cosmetics, writing materials *suzuribako ₯ ; and incense *kougou . Eventually the writing box evolved as a separate unit and was subsequently replaced by numerous receptacles. By the late 11c, the six most common boxes stored within the tebako were two small rectangular boxes for tooth black; a square box for cosmetics such as white face powder; a large round box for a mirror kagamibako Ύ ; and two small, round boxes for incense. Through the Muromachi period, tebako had two main types of lids: kabusebuta-zukuri νW’ (over lapping lid style); and aikuchi-zukuri ϋ’ (flush mouth style). When daimyou choudo εΌ²x (appliances for daimyou) became popular, tebako styles, included the juuni tebako \ρθ (twelve-layered type) and sumiaka tebako pΤθ (red corner type). | ||||||
