About the Item
This most pleasing hand carved hardwood Japanese Meiji period okimono depicts a muscular prowling tiger. Its body is slightly lowered in a stalking position with its mouth open showing a formidable array of teeth which in addition to its large paws with sharp claws makes this large cat a top natural predator.
This wonderful study has been carved from a single piece of dense rich hardwood including the naturalistic base. All the elements are original and in good condition with no damage.
This pleasing okimono has developed a rich dark patina over the last century.
Japanese, circa 1900
Height 15cm x width 30cm x depth 7cm
