Japanese Fine Hand Carved Pair Flying Cranes With Matsu Trees Ranma Screen
About the Item
Japan, a fine hand carved wooden screen "ranma" or transom featuring a spectacular composition of a pair (2) of finely carved flying cranes among matsu trees executed in kuri (chestnut wood), circa 1950s.
In Japan, the crane, or tsuru, is a national treasure and is considered the bird of happiness. It is depicted in art, literature, and mythology as a symbol of good luck and longevity because it is said to live 1,000 years.
Hand carved and meticulously detailed in light original natural color make this imposing wildlife screen a must consideration. Notice the simple and fine details. One of a kind.
Very good condition.
One of a pair- please review our second listing that is currently available and that would make a fine match to this ranma.
Dimensions: 16 inches high and 67.25 inches length, perfect for wall mounting
About Japanese Ranma:
