About the Item
A tool used to hang a kettle from the ceiling above a hearth is called a Jizai-kagi(自在鉤).
This is a part called a Yokogi(横木) that is used to adjust the length of the hook.
It has been smoked for many years to create this look.
A tool used in rural Japan.
It can also be considered a Japanese primitive.
The amateur carving adds depth to the flavor, and the beauty of the wood is captivating.
Among them, I came across a particularly cute Yokogi.
It makes you wonder how long it took to smoke it to this extent.
The shape is also charming, making it a one-of-a-kind old folk art.

18th Century Qing Dynasty Fish Shaped Cricket Holder
Located in Incline Village, NV
Uniquely fabulous and highly unusual item for those seeking something different; this 18th century "cricket holder" from the Qing Dynasty is in the shape of a fish and is made of hand wrought metal, with nice detail and an open woven body which provided air to the cricket. A sophisticated clasp locking mechanism on the underneath of the fish kept the pet cricket contained in the caged holder. Obviously this was intact when someone at some point in time tried to remove whatever was inside by making a hole at the base of the tail to get it out (see image). This hand held cricket cage holder is in very nice and all original condition, save for the small hole; not fragile in any way; sturdy in structure with no repairs.
For over 1000 years the Chinese have used crickets...
