介绍（中）	书写盒（suzuri bako）内有一块砚、一个樱花形状的滴管和一把刷子。盖子正面的设计以一个快速的瀑布为主；这条小溪穿过一系列的山脉和岩石，周围环绕着松树和竹子。这条河被描绘成金和银的maki-e，这种技术被称为togidashi，经过打磨直到完全平坦。细线条表现了湍急的水流。在瀑布的底部，气泡状的波浪用银制成，并用镶银的圆形物进一步增强，以表达水滴。有七个金字，可能是指一首诗或表达吉祥的概念，如"龟"或"千年"。盖子内的瀑布图案重复，没有字符。该设计可能参考了吉野（奈良县）附近风景如画的宫野taki瀑布，这是一个在日本文学中具有重要意义的瀑布。
介绍（英）	The writing box (suzuri-bako) contains an inkstone, a water dropper in the shape of cherry blossoms, and a brush. The design on the front of the lid is dominated by a rapid waterfall; the stream descends through a range of mountains and rocks surrounded by pine trees and bamboo grass. The river is depicted in gold and silver maki-e that has been burnished down until it is completely flat, a technique called togidashi. Fine lines express the fast-flowing water. At the bottom of the waterfall, bubbly waves are executed in silver and are further enhanced with silver-inlaid roundels to express water drops. There are seven gold-inlaid characters that might refer to a poem or express auspicious notions, such as “turtle” or “thousand years.” Inside the lid the waterfall design is repeated without the characters. The design might refer to the picturesque Miyano-taki falls near Yoshino (Nara Prefecture), a waterfall that has significance in Japanese literature.
