Great Wood Carving Lion Figurine / 1868-1920 / Rare Item
Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba
This looks like an old copperware, but it is a wood carving work.
It is glossy because it is finished with black lacquer.
It is a very delicate and beautiful sculpture.
The expression of the lion is cool.
Also, the sculpture on the tail is wonderful.
It is thought that it was carved on wood such as Japanese cypress.
The name of the engraver is also engraved.
The name "Kichitaro" is engraved.
I don't know the details of this person.
There are also small cracks and defects.
There is a loss in the lower part of his right ear and part of his tail.
And there are lacquer cracks and wood cracks.
This is an old one, so there is something like this.
Also, in the case of Japanese and Chinese lions, a ball is attached to the left hand, but this is missing.
However, it is a work that is quite impressive.
It is a rare item...

Antique Japanese wooden crane figurine / 20th century / wood carving
Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba
This wooden crane figurine was crafted in Japan in the late 20th century. The artist utilized the natural shape of the wood, particularly the roots, to carve the crane's body. The base is carved from a knot, and its powerful, organic contours convey the base's sense of life. This piece elevates nature's natural form to the crane with minimal modification.
Cranes have long been considered symbols of longevity and good fortune, and have been used in wedding and New Year's decorations. The idea of emanating the crane's shape from the roots of a tree seems to reflect the Japanese view of nature and their cherishing the "signs of things." The slender legs simply slide into the base, allowing for easy disassembly. This figurine is easy to transport and store, making it a convenient display piece.
Weighing just 0.75 kg, it can be easily placed anywhere. It enhances the traditional atmosphere when placed in a Japanese-style alcove, or in front of a modern white-walled space or exposed concrete wall, the contrast of the materials creates a striking art piece. Placing it on a windowsill, entryway shelf...
