Japanese Antique Wooden Carved Deer figurine
Located in Katori-Shi, 12
This is an extremely valuable hand-carved wood sculpture of a Japanese serow.
This is a piece that highlights the artisan's outstanding techniques, and while most are natural and unpainted, this one is painted black, giving it a chic and sophisticated look.
Even the areas where the paint has peeled off over time add to its charm.
The exquisite balance of the carving of the fur and the carving of the surface gives it a strong and adorable look while still giving the impression of the flow of the fur.
While it has the traditional beauty of form that is unique to Old Japan, it also has a smartness that is reminiscent of European wood carvings...
