About the Item

It was during the late Meiji period that exquisite examples of bronzes, such as this one, were first seen by the West during the international expositions. It was only the Japanese that understood the value of color in metal. In many examples we see gold, silver, copper, zinc, black-metal, and tea-urn bronze.
