古國之琉球,轄琉球諸島,含奄美、沖繩及先島群島。十五世紀初,第一尚氏建國於此,1470年第二尚氏繼位,1609年島津氏攻進琉球,掀開幕府時代。自1879年起,琉球之稱謂不再復用,始稱沖繩縣。琉球王國位處東亞貿易樞紐,北望日本,西鄰中、朝,南近東南亞各國。其借地利之便,通商四方,多受中國影響,兼納百家文化。

琉球漆藝,自十五世紀末至十六世紀初漸興。據史料載,其嵌螺鈿、戧金、箔繪及彩繪漆器曾大量出口中國。眾藝之中,嵌螺鈿為琉球漆器主流。且於十六世紀後半葉特設官作,名曰「Kaizuri Bugyo」,一批精美多樣之螺鈿漆器孕育而生。正因如此,今人方能知其風格,感其藝精。如見本場黑漆嵌螺鈿錦地家紋六方器座(拍品913)。同見褐漆嵌螺鈿加金片「松鼠葡萄」圖長方蓋盒(拍品910)。此盒蓋沿作波浪狀,甚為奇巧,罕有類者,可比一近似作例,藏浦添市美術館(圖1)。
