Antique Japanese WovenSilk PaintedCeramicOjimes Beadwork Embroidery Inro
Located in Chicago, IL
This rare antique Edo-period (1615-1868) Japanese handmade inro is a curved lozenge-shaped hand-dyed woven-silk hard carrying-case container sheath that features intricate embroidery with rock-crystal or glass beadwork and thin leather-wrapped thread appliques.
