Antique Japanese Insect Inlaid Sagemono Daruma Tonkotsu And Pipe Holder - Signed
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:18528235 | Region of Origin: Japanese |
Product: Box |
Here I have my antique Japanese carved wood tobacco box and pipe holder. The daruma tonkotsu is inlaid with a butterfly and beetle and glass eyes. Inside, you can see the original colour of the cord which attaches the pipe holder! There's a house-shaped ojime bead between the 2 parts and it's signed on the back. I'm not an expert in Japanese antiquities so please inspect the pictures closely - I bought this at an antique fair years ago because I liked ...the character of it!
Condition: Very good antique condition, as per the photos, no damage that I can spot.
