Japanned refers to a lacquered decorative technique that imitates Asian lacquer ware, popular in 17th and 18th-century Europe. Typically featuring black lacquer with gold accents, it often adorned furniture, metal ware, and accessories. The glossy, durable finish and exotic motifs made Japanned pieces highly fashionable, reflecting a fascination with Eastern aesthetics.
